Shirdi Sai Parivaar Center, Milpitas , California

-

 

Shirdi Sai Parivaar (SSP) temple is one of my most favorite temple of Saibaba in Bay area. This facility in Milpitas was established in 2010, is a non-profit volunteer based spiritual and charity organization. They have considerable big size murti of Sai Baba in the Main Hall as well as a small murti in Chavadi. A huge photo of Baba is placed in Dwarkamai. 



Very well maintained, peaceful environment and organized by volunteers. This environment calms me whenever I visit and when I'm sitting in the main hall. There is a huge seating area with seating benches in the main prayer hall.


There are many free classes offered throughout the year including summer courses for both Kids and Adults purely conducted by the volunteer participation. 

My kid loves to attend those classes. I appreciate the efforts made by all the volunteers of Sai baba temple.

Ps: They serve free Prasadam everyday especially evenings and Thursdays is crowded as it is known to be Shirdi Sai Baba's day.

SSP also has another branch at 897 Kifer Road, Sunnyvale.


Saibaba named by his devotees among Hindus as well as Muslims, which means Saint or Sadhguru. He has always been known as a Master or Teacher(Guru) among HIS devotees.

It is known in Sanatana Dharma that Guru Brihaspati was the Guru of the Devas. So, Thursday is dedicated to the planet Guru (Jupiter) and the presiding deity is Lord Dhakshinamoorthy, an incarnation of Shiva, the supreme Guru of knowledge. In Kaliyuga, It is known to many that Sainath or Shridi Sai is a Guru or a mentor. He is given an equal status of God but according to books "He always said that He was an obedient servant of God". He never said, "I am God," but that He was a humble servant. He used to always meditate “Lord Shiva” as, Shiva was the first Guru - "Adi Guru". Many people in  Sanatana Dharma regard "Thursday" as the day of the Lord/Master. Most of us propitiate Gurus like Lord Dhakshinamoorthy, Lord Dattatreya and we considering them as our Gurus. Since Sai is a Guru hence Saibaba is worshipped on Thursdays. 

Jai SAI RAM !!!

OM Sree Gurubhyom Namaha🙏🏻

Om Sri Sachidananda Sadhguru Sainath Maharaj Ki Jai !!!

As you may know, I enjoy taking time to browse through my photo albums to relive the memories of my past travels. Recently, I came across pictures from my trip to Hershey's Chocolate World of Pennsylvania in 2018, and it was truly a remarkable experience. The trip was filled with excitement and wonder as I explored the world of chocolate and indulged in delicious treats.  Wow & wow! This store is like a dream come true for me! The place is enormous and filled with all kinds of Hershey's candies. They also have 3-D movie and historical Trolley ride which is a must-see. The selection is immense and the atmosphere inside is joyous, colorful, and fun. As soon as I walked in, I started smiling because I love Chocolates, I was so impressed with its history too. The prices for rides or candies were good. As i said before, we can experience all the rides for fun, and the best part is that we will get sample chocolate on all the rides as a compliment.  The "Make Your Own Choco
