The Magical Flute of Sri Sarabha Sastri !!!
We are preserving the Avathara Purushan of 19th century Sri Sarabha Sastrigal's flute for more than 100 years. Thanks to Late Balaji Mama (God father of present generation) who approached Sastri Ji cousin's and got it back to Sabha. Thanks to Sastri family members who generously donated the million dollar flute to Sabha.
I have taken the photo using my mobile. Will upload a better one in future :-)
The holes in the flutes are so close & the present generation musicians will find very difficult to use it.
Jai Sri Ram!!!

Pranam to Maha Pariyava!!!
Pariyava Visited our Mutt in the year 1956 during Mahamaham festival & delivered a speech on Sri Sarabha Sastri and his contribution towards classical music. He also told how Sastri Ji mastered himself with Veda Sastram, Kannadam, Sanskrit, Marati and in ragas. He facilitated the local residence & encouraged to continue the service to Sri Rama Bhajanai Sabha & to Sri Sarabha Sastri.
The below photo of Maha Pariyava is preserved in our mutt for several decades :-)
