"Spread over two acres in Valaparla, SDSSC is home to a 5.5 ft Sai idol carved from a single block of Australian marble — sanctified before Sai in Shirdi itself."
On 29 October 2012, in the auspicious Dhanur Lagna Puskaramsa, the Pratisthapana homa was performed as the statues of Sri Dattatreya and Sri Shirdi Sai Baba were installed. Since then, SDSSC has grown into the largest Shirdi Sai temple in South Bengaluru — a quiet counterpoint to the city, 45 km down Kanakapura Road.
Devotees come here for the same reason they always have: to sit in one place, breathe, and feel looked after.
