World's Largest 116ft Shirdi Sai Baba Statue at Sri Sai Baba Mandir, Repur, Kakinada. East Godavari Dist.

Aum Sai Ram.

This is the First Temple on which i'm writing article that I visited during my 17th Pilgrimage to Sri Shirdi Sai Baba Temple at Visakhapatnam & Kakinada between 17th July 2013 till 26th July 2013.

To see Complete List of Temples Visited under Pilgrimage Series Visit:
Raghav's Sai Baba Temple Pilgrimage Series.

Though this was the last & only temple to be visited in Kakinada Town, i felt that i have to write article about this temple first & later on write articles on the Other temples visited by me at Visakhapatnam City between 17th July 2013 till 24th July 2013.

I've visited this temple thrice in the last 17 months & I'm sharing the snaps of all the 3 visits to help Sai Devotees understand how this Magnificient Statue of Sri Sai Baba was Constructed & Painted.

A 116 ft Cement Statue of Sri Shirdi Sai Baba was unveiled on the 1st Jan 2012. It took 11 years to construct this cement statue at a Cost of around 2.5 Crores with a life time guarantee of around 500 Years. Sai Baba is sitting on the Cement Stone which is 4 florey High.

A Cellar has been constructed below the foot of Sai Baba & the temple authorities are planning to fill it with 1000 crores of Sai Nama Japam sheets in the coming future.

It is Sri Ammula Samba Siva Rao's inspiration that is behind the construction of this 100 feet Sai Baba's Statue. Sai Devotees around this place have donated the land to Sai. We feel Sai's presence around the place. A Marble statue of Baba is installed by Guruji Sri Ammula Samba Siva Rao. Lendibagh with trees & plants have been maintained in the temple premises.

Behind the Sai Baba temple, work for the construction of 116 feet statue of Sai Baba commenced during 2000's. The left leg of Sai Baba is 18 feet high & sits on the Base which is three floor High.

The left leg of Baba that is the stupa is filled with Sai's Nama Japam books. We can see different Statues of Sai Baba around the Temple premises. A Statue of Sai Baba in dancing posture can also be found on the Dwaja Stambam in the temple premises.

It's a boon to the people of Kakinada & East Godavari Dist & it will soon be a historical place with High Importance for the devotees of Shirdi Sai Baba.

Baba's Face can been seen even from a distance of 5kms from a 5 florey Apartment or Mall Building during Day time.
