Woke up to this brilliant brilliant news of playback singer SPB garu donating his ancestral house in Nellore to the @KanchiMatham. It would become a Veda Patashala soon, under the guidance and blessings of current Acharyal Shankara Vijayendra Saraswati. ☺🙏

Many don't know that SPB's father, Panditharadhyula Sambamurthy Bhagavathulu (1906 - 1987) was a great Harikatha Vidwan. He was a great devotee of Saint Tyagaraja. He was called 'Tyagaraja Bhikshuvu'. He began the Tyagaraja Aradhana in this same house, decades ago! ☺🙏
Every great stalwart of Carnatic music has visited this house and sung here over the decades. Bhagavatulu garu's ancestral home was like a temple to Saint Tyagaraja.
Few years ago, SPB unveiled another beautiful bronze statue of his presented by the citizens of Nellore. ☺🙏

I can go on and on about the wonderful service Bhagavatulu garu did for spreading music, but that's for another time. ☺🙏
Today, his son SPB did him proud! The home, once filled with music, will now be reverberating with vedic Mantras once it becomes a Patashala! ☺🙏

With this unprecedented act of generosity, SPB and his family acquire great Punyam! ☺🙏
You can be the richest, greatest and most popular human on earth, but what is a life if you can't do something for your Desham and Dharmam? 🤷♂
SPB has set a great example!🙏
