Sannidhi - Divine Story of Pakalapati Guruvugaru

సన్నిధి - శ్రీ పాకలపాటి గురువుగారి దివ్య చరిత్ర
--------------------------
శ్రీ భరద్వాజ మాస్టర్ గారు రచించిన, "నేను దర్శించిన మహాత్ములు - శ్రీ పాకలపాటి గురువుగారు" అనే అమూల్యమైన పుస్తకాన్ని పోస్టు ద్వారా (DD/MO) ఆర్డర్ చేయుటకు కావలిసిన వివరాలు ఈ క్రింది వెబ్ పేజీలలో చూడగలరు:

--------------------------

In addition, there is also another excellent book on Sri Pakalapati Guruvu garu, called: "Sannidhi". This book is written by Sri U. V. A. N. Raju garu. Raju garu is a student and disciple of Sri Ekkirala Krishnamacharyulu garu (Master EK). This is also a must read book (in my opinion!).

"Sannidhi" book can be ordered online, using credit card, from the following link:

Sairam,
Subrahmanyam.
 

Route to Paakalapati Guruvugari Asramam



There are more than 10 ashrams of Pakalapati guruvu garu near Narsipatnam!!!
Sri Bharadwaja Master garu visited and stayed with Pakalapati Guruvu garu at Bhimasingi Asramamu.
I think it is also one of the places where Pakalapati Guruvu garu stayed for quite a long time.

The journey to this place is beautifully explained by Master garu:

Here are some more details...

How to reach Bhimasingi:
Here is the relevant map:

The nearby train station to this place is Tuni. Tuni is in the Vijayawada-Visakhapatnam train route. While going by train towards Visakhapatnam, Tuni comes approximately 2 hours before Visakhapatnam.

(1) Get down at Tuni train station and go to Tuni Bus stand, it's very near.

(2) From Tuni Bus stand, if you can catch a bus going to Gudem (It's NOT Tadepalli Gudem), you can directly go to Lotugadda Junction. Gudem bus goes via Narsipatnam only. So, you can even prefer to go to Narsipatanam first and then to Lotu gadda Jn. as the frequency of buses to Narsi Patnam is more.

(3) From Lotugadda Jn, it's a 20 minutes walk to Guruvugari ashram at BhimaSingi. You can enquire at Lotugadda Jn. itself about the route to Bhimasingi.

About the Ashram:
Homas are performed at this ashram on Pournima and Amavasya of every month, and also on Maha Siva ratri. Many devotees visit the ashram on these occasions. The people at ashram receive the visitors with great hospitality and affection; they take care of all our needs to the extent that we start feeling guilty that we do not deserve such care! If possible, plan to stay there for at least one night, as it gives glimpses of how it would have been to be with Pakalapati Guruvu garu physically.

About Balighattam:
Balighattam is very close to Narsipatnam (3 km).
Here is the relevant map:

The funeral rites of Pakapati Guruvugaru were performed at Balighattam. They were done in the presence of Master EK garu, and many of His students. In that sacred place, now there is a temple and a marble statue of Pakalapati Guruvu garu. I heard that many devotees come there and stay for 2-3 days, doing parayana of Sri Guru Charitra and Sri Sai Leelamrutamu. I also read that Yoga classes are conducted at this place, every year during December - 24, 25 & 26, by the students of Master EK garu.

Sairam,
Subrahmanyam.
