Puttaparthi To Become Indian Vatican

It needs no introduction to any catholic Christian on the sanctity of the Vatican and the significance it has in the Christian community. Now, many are saying that something like this should be done with the town of Puttaparthi, the abode of Satya Sai Baba. They are proposing that this should get a separate status in India.

Incidentally, secularism is high in our country and the same happens in Puttaparthi as well. Also, there is service and love as the key principle in Puttaparthi. Though Indian government can’t endorse a Hindu center given its secular image, but Satya Sai’s place can be endorsed as his doctrines are based on universal love irrespective of religion.

Though he is not there physically, the activities will continue and pilgrimage can also be attracted. Recently, a journalist asked the noted ghazal maestro Ghazal Srinivas about this and queried “But if Puttaparthi were to be given some special status, some are saying problems can also arise just like it is happening in Tirumala Tirupathi Devasthanam. You think it is right?”

For this, Ghazal Srinivas reportedly smiled and referring to Satya Sai Baba he said “He knows and sees everything. Though he is physically not present, he knows how to handle everything even from his Samadhi.” Well… let us wait to see if there will be an Indian Vatican then.
