Bhoomi Puja Ceremony: Accommodation Hubs for a Timeless Celebration | July 31, 2025

Loving Sai Ram and greetings from Prasanthi Nilayam, the Abode of Peace!

With just 115 days to go, the world stands at the threshold of a historic and spiritually momentous occasion — the Centenary Celebrations of Bhagawan Sri Sathya Sai Baba. An event of divine magnitude, it is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for devotees across the globe to come together and rejoice in the life, love, and legacy of the Avatar of the Age.

From the soul-enriching Akhanda Bhajans to the Divine Birthday Celebrations, this fortnight-long spiritual festival will be unparalleled in scale, depth, and divine energy. Prasanthi Nilayam, the spiritual nucleus of Bhagawan’s mission, is preparing to welcome a massive outpouring of devotion, as tens of thousands are expected to congregate and immerse themselves in the celebrations.

To lovingly accommodate the vast influx of devotees, the Sri Sathya Sai Central Trust has initiated a massive infrastructure effort, ensuring that every devotee is taken care of. Alongside new dormitories and accommodation blocks at the western end, temporary sheds and devotional accommodation hubs will be set up across multiple locations in and around Prasanthi Nilayam, with a focus on convenience, comfort, and community. With German tents and marquees — equipped with lighting, ventilation, and essential facilities — devotees will experience a seamless blend of spiritual simplicity and modern necessity.

With Bhagawan’s divine blessings, on this auspicious Thursday, the foundation stone laying ceremony for one of the major temporary accommodation sites — sprawling over 3 acres — was conducted with sacred fervour this morning.

Gracing the occasion were Mr K Chakravarthi (Chairman, SSSGC) and Mr RJ Rathnakar (Managing Trustee, SSSCT), alongside other senior functionaries and dignitaries. Their presence marked not only administrative commitment but heartfelt devotion to ensuring this celebration reflects Bhagawan’s boundless love and vision.

This is your moment. This is our time. This is His centenary.
Let us rise together as one global Sai family. Let us celebrate, serve, sing, and surrender — in unity and love. Let our hearts beat with the pulse of seva. This is not just an event — it is a sacred reunion of His children at the feet of the Divine.
Be there. Belong. Be blessed.
