Sai Geetha Ashram, Secunderabad, Andhra Pradesh
About Sai Geetha Ashram:
Sai Geetha Ashram is a sacred place, which affords shelter and takes away one's distress while simultaneously bestowing the seeker with peace and happiness.
Sai Geetha Ashram offers succour and solace to the care-worn individual, caught in the daily grind of life. Here in the cool environs of lush green trees, one feels wonderfully restored in mind, body and sprit.
The year 1987 is significant for, in this year H.H. Sadguru Sri Sri Sri Sai Kumar Babaji fulfilled yet another divine task. He established this Ashram with a specifc purpose – that people may find solutions to their myriad problems through the medium of Puja or ritual worship to tree-deities. By doing so, we are reviving a much forgotten but age old custom of respecting and glorifying Mother Nature. By connecting with Nature we rediscover the sanctity, harmony and abundance sorely missing in our lives. Sadguru Babaji, in His Boundless Love, has shown us the real and true path to Bliss. Man must learn to live with nature in the true sense of the word.
Sai Geetha Ashram is set in a sprawling area of bountiful land, home to over a hundred species of rare plants and trees. These have been carefully sourced from different parts of India and countries abroad. This life-giving piece of earth has “Dhanwantari Trees” – those that impart health, “Divine Trees” that ensure prosperity in life and “Nakshtra Vrikshas” (Birth star trees) those that fulfill our sincere and legitimate desires. Circumambulating all these trees bestows the desired result. Ensconced among these trees are sacred idols of Ganesha, Hanuman and Garuda which occupy pride of place and fulfill our honest wishes. These hallowed abodes are entitled “Abhaya Murthula Kshetra”, “Garuda Kshetra”, “Draupadi Kshetra” and the holy shrine of Sri Shirdi Sai Baba.
At Sai Geetha Ashram, worship takes on a whole new meaning and fervour. Located far from the madding crowd, this unique Ashram is truly a home-coming for the seeker of the four-fold path namely Dharma (discharge of duty), Artha (acquiring wealth), Kama (gratification of desire) and Moksha (final emancipation).
Sai Geetha Ashram provides scope for attaining Divine Inspiration and the elevation from a lower plane to a higher truth. The name of the Ashram has been conferred by Sadguru Babaji to encompass and embrace the divine message of Sri Sai Baba of Shirdi.
Sri Sai Baba of Shirdi was an Apostle of Love, Compassion and Humility. He sought to dispel the dark of ignorance and scatter the shadows of ill-feelings rampant among people, by lighting lamps of wisdom in each soul through His divine words. The so-called Fakir who begged for alms and who also distributed “Vibhuthi” (Sacred Ashes) among people, constantly reminds us by His deeds of the brevity of life and that death would reduce us all to ashes and dust. We should serve mankind because service to man is service to God.

Seshadri Maharshi Ashram,Tiruvannamalai, Tamil Nadu
Seshadri Swamigal was born in the year 1870 at Kancheepuram. It is believed that he went to Thriuvannamalai when he was in his teens. He was a ardent devotee of Goddess Shakthi. Unlike Ramana Maharishi who was a staunch follower of Lord Arunachalaeswarar. They were good friends even though their way of life was totally different from one another. Seshadri Swamigal’s behavior was strange to the devotees. He would never sit or sleep in one particular place and never had any permanent home of his own. Most of his time was spent roaming the streets of Tiruvannamalai. He used to sleep whenever it was comfortable to sleep in a place. Never had any organized daily routine to follow. Always ate food from roadside shops without paying them any money. The shopkeepers thought it was a good omen if Swamiji visited their shop to eat. There would be heavy sales in that particular shop where Seshadri Swamigal ate that day.
Seshadri Swamigal would never take bath for years together. But all the while likes to enjoy getting himself fully drenched in the rain. He stands still even in heavy downpours and would get indoors only when it stopped completely. Some times he would sing and dance in the rain in front of his devotees without any reservations. He lead life like a siddhi and would foretell things that would happen in future. He even reads people’s mind by observing them quickly. When they came to him for blessings, sometimes he would run away from them. He does not like devotees touching his feet and falling at his feet. At times pilgrims are scared to go near him, since he would abuse and throw stones at them. He mostly avoids people around him and like to sit in a lonely place talking to himself like a insane person. Sometimes he would touch the sick persons and his touch had a miraculous power to cure all ailments whom so ever he touched.
This power is believed to be inculcated from the Goddess Shakthi since he was a strong devotee of her. He was equally blessed with miraculous power of Lord Arunachalaeswar and Lord Rama. It is believed Mahan Seshadri was a gift of goddess Kamakshi. Since he was born to the couple Varadharajan and Maragatham after being childless for long years and was born after performing severe penance to Goddess Kamakshi. Hence he was considered a boon offered by Kamakshi.
Shri Seshadri was considered a divine child from the beginning. He also proved them right by starting to do poojas from his early childhood. One incident made him more popular in Kancheepuram when Seshadri was only a four year old child. Little Seshadri was walking beside his mother in the temple street. As he was passing by the shop he picked up a idol of Krishna kept there in the shop for sale. Seshadri’s mother refused to buy him the idol, but Seshadri was stubborn to own it. The shop keeper seeing this situation, allowed Seshadri to take the Krishna idol free. The next day when Seshadri was walking with his mother passing by the same shop to the temple, the shopkeeper recognizing the boy felt he was a golden child with divine powers. And he spread word about his power to every one since the whole lot of idol were sold the previous day when he touched the idol of Lord Krishna at his shop. From then on every body called him a boy with golden hand and with extraordinary divine powers.
At the fifth year Seshadri was sent to Veda patasalai by his parents. There he showed keen intelligence to grasp various vedantas and mantras. And by the time he was fourteen he learnt much at this Patasalai. His father passed away when Mahan was only fourteen years old. There after his uncle took to Vazhur. Here Swamiji completed his learning and was a master in Upanishads, Vedas, Gita,Vyakarama and Nyaya besides astrology and music. And when Mahan was seventeen his mother also died and his uncle solely took care of him and his brother. Seshadri began doing severe pooja and sat for long hours with the pictures of goddess Shakthi, Lord Arunachalaeswar and Lord Rama. When Seshadri was nineteen he became a disciple of Sri Balaji Swamigal who inducted him to sanyasin. Seshadri after traveling many holy cities and towns in Tamil Nadu reached Tiruvannamalai, the abode of Lord Arunachalaeswar.
Seshadri did not have any specific place for meditation. He would move from place to place and his favourite places were Kambattu Illayanar temple, Draupadi Amman temple, Yogeswara mandapam and padhala lingam. Seshadri came to Tiruvannamalai quite earlier to Ramana maharishi. The people around this holy temple city Tiruvannamalai would often refer to Seshadri Mahan as the elder brother of Ramana Maharishi.
Mahan always emphasized people to pray to Shiva Lingam. One can attain liberation and get spiritually enlightened by praying to Lord Arunachalaeswar. This was believed to be his strong teaching and ideology that he propagated among his followers far and wide.
Seshadri Swamigal after spending nearly forty years in Tiruvannamalai breathed his last here after falling sick for a brief period of time. The Ashram of Seshadri Swamigal is located near the Ramana Ashram at Tiruvannamalai.
There are Pancha Loha Idols of Shri. Sheshadri Swami and Shirdi Saibaba inside the Ashram Premises.
