As we all know more or less, India is the land of holy men, gurus. Just think Yogananda, Babaji and many others that I even conosco.Ma character certainly worthy of note is Sai Baba. These, now at the ripe old age of 80 years has established his ashram principal (plus several branches all over India) and has disciples from all over the world. In india you know Baba is very influential, just think of who regularly visit him leading personalities of Indian politics (recently, Indian Prime Minister Vajpayee .)
The reason for this success is unknown to me (even when I was smaller, there are was 2 times.) Sai Baba has created this village in southern India calling Prashanthinilayam (translated literally earth-peace-) when it was little more than a boy. Since then he has started to do miracles, so they say-which materialize fruits, jewelry, healing the sick etc etc.. His figure of "Saint" has gradually consolidated until today, when Prashanthinilayam is now a city that they visit hundreds of thousands of pilgrims a year. Sai Baba is also involved in the construction of free hospitals, creation of charities such as aqueducts, wells, and dicendo.Lungi away from me to judge this, although I will tell you that the rational mind seems a little absurd to believe certain cose.Per who still wanted to go there out of curiosity: Prashanthi Nilayam or "Puttaparthi" located about 120 km north of Bangalore, capital of the state of Karnataka.Puttaparthi is instead part of the state of Andhra Pradesh, and more precisely is under the jurisdiction of the district of Anantapur.
rises on a very deserted area, with barren hills and streams and lakes dried up during the Dry season. When starting the monsoons, which among other things are not usually very violent in this area, the region changed radically and there was a great flourishing of the environment: from the desert hills sloping round and around Puttaparthi is greening and the many lakes in the region has recently been riempono.Di opened a tiny airport at Puttaparthi that will take you directly with a flight from Bombay to 2 hours and 30.Tale service works but only on certain days and in certain months of the year. Otherwise, another way to get here is to make a panoramic journey 4 hours by car from Bangalore and 30 through the myriad of small villages and remote landscapes that characterize the zona.Arrivati \u200b\u200bdestination you can stay in one of these small hotels in a city or a housing offer from the ashram to 100 rupees per day per room (plus or minus 2 €). Puttaparthi, there are several tour operators who can assist in planning the trip, one of which (among other things talks also Italian) is the Travel Point that he owns the affabilissimo Syed (read saied). If you need info on the trip you can ask him.
