Venkamma
Today is New Year
’s Day
. I bless you with a long life,
happiness and peace. This New Year will give you all
kinds of happiness.
I am in Bhadrachalam now. We came in eight cars
yesterday night Rajamma, Seeethamma, Seshagiri Rao,
Narasamma, Cincholi Lakshmi Bai and Chincholi Rani
are here with me.
Kousalyamma, Bhanumathi, their next door neighbor, her
husband, their child and many new people are all here.
Here Rajamma’s son Krishnaswamy is a D.S.P. That is
why boats and all arrangements were offered to us with
all facilities.
Tell all the people in the Old Sai Mandir and tell Krish-
namma in the New Mandir that I am very well, happy and
in bliss.
I will be coming back soon. Tell everyone in the village.
That’s all. No time.

Blessings Venkamma Himayatnagar
20.12.1955
Arrangements have been made here on a very grand
scale. I left Hyderabad and came to Himayatnagar
yesterday. From here I will go to Suryapet, Nalagonda,
Jangam, Warangal and Mehboobabad.
We have been greeted in every town with excellent lodg-
ings, festooned with mountain sized hanging garlands. I
am very happy. Krishna went to Madras day before
yesterday. Patala Ramu, Seshagiri Rao, Narasamma,
Chincholi Rani, Narasimha Reddy and many other people
are coming with me to every town. I am eating food from
time to time. I am very happy.
Otherwise there is no time for even a second. There is no
rest. Thousands and thousands of people are making
grand arrangements and expressing their deep devotion.
Write to me at Chincholi Rani’s house in Hyder
abad, iIt
will reach me. Look after the Mandir very well. Convey my
blessings to all our friends there.
Chebroli Subba Rao and his wife, Minister Naragondu
Rama Rao, his wife and brother, Vijayalakshmamma are
all coming to Hyderabad. I will write about other matters
later. All is well.
Polakamma’s daughter
and
Janaki’s wedding is on the
28th. Knowing my program, I have made all the
arrangements. They are all very happy. I am going to
Jangam. That’s all. My Blessings to all. Convey to
everyone that I am in bliss and happiness.
Blessings

This letter is Venkamma
I came to this town yesterday. I am doing well. All
types of facilities have been prepared for us here.
There are lots of people following behind me wher-
ever I go.
Everywhere we go people have extended great
hospitality to us. The arrangements they have made
put me in bliss. Seven to eight cars are following me
wherever I go.
I am writing this letter quickly as time is very short. I
am going to Jangam tomorrow.
I will write a letter from there.
That’s all. Blessings.
Revered
Baba
