Brindavan Ashram |
Brindavan
is another significant venue in the life and mission of Bhagawan Sri
Sathya Sai Baba. Established in 1964, Brindavan, located near Whitefield
on the outskirts of Bangalore, enjoys the proximity of the Divine for
about three months every year. Situated on about fifty acres of land on
the outskirts of KaduGodi village and next to Whitefield railway station,
the focal point of the ashram is Trayee Brindavan which serves as
Bhagawan's residence and the Sai Ramesh Darshan Hall where Bhagawan gives
darshan. The ashram also houses the Brindavan Campus of the Sri Sathya Sai
Institute of Higher Learning. This is a campus for men offering
undergraduate courses in the sciences and in commerce subjects. The other
landmarks in and around Brindavan are the Sai Krishan Kalyanamandapam; a
residential complex named as Sri Sathya Sai Gokulam; the Sri Sathya Sai
Hospital and the Sri Sathya Sai Vriddhashram. A new Super-Specialty
Hospital on the lines of the one at Puttaparthi is coming up on a
fifty-acre site near
Whitefield. |
