No matter how hard one tried to be accurate, somehow false information creeps in. Several people said that the Baba statue was under construction.
Even last week people in authority advised me that it was being worked on but not yet completed.
Now comes the news that it hasn’t even been started. Sanathana Sarathi announced that the Central Trust was taking designs and ideas for a Sai Baba statue which will be placed with the Samadhi. It will be dedicated on Guru Poornima.
The Trust is accepting proposals complete with preliminary designs and sketches from artists, sculptors and other creative people. They want the inner spirit of Sai Baba to come through the physical beauty.
Such proposal should be sent to the chairman of the Sri Sathya Sai Sadhana Trust in Prasanthi Nilayam – 515134 (coordinator@sssmt.org.in) by the end of November 2011.
The decision of the Sri Sathya Sai Central Trust will be final.
If you go to http://www.saireflections.org/index_inr.html, there are many photos of Sai Baba that you can use to get ideas. Furthermore, you can sent an email with the picture that you like telling the Trust that it what you would like in the statue.
At this point, you only have until November 30th.
sairam!
