About Shirdi Sai Temple :
“The Shirdi Sai temple was only incidental,” says Seshadri. “Narasimha Swami lived in a shed in the temple premises and with my own eyes I have seen mongoose and snakes playing with each other, dogs and cats in total amity and kittens being suckled by a dog inside the temple,” the septuagenarian’s eyes turn moist. “The temple is a result of one man’s toil but you will not find Narasimha Swamiji’s name anywhere in the temple.” The temple later gained a pristine look through the efforts launched by the Sai Samaj, which then had Seshadri as its secretary and J. D. Pannalal as treasurer.
“Baba’s miracles alone need not be given importance. But it is imperative to know, realise and follow His teachings,” believes Seshadri.
