Sri Sathya Sai at Puttaparthi -1948
Wednesday, January 14, 1948
The foundation stone for the New Mandir at Puttaparathi was laid on the 14th
January 1948. Devotees from Yadalam, the Gummagatta families and others from
Bukkapatnam accompanied Baba to the site. Sri R. Neeladri Rao, who played an
important role; Transport Commissioner Sri Hanumantha Rao, and many other royal
Zamindars also attended the function.
A hole was dug in the ground and Baba materialised pearls and other precious
stones and dropped them in the pit. The foundation stone was laid on top. This
was the beginning of ‘Prasanthi Nilayam’.
