KHANDOBA MANDIR
|
Khandoba is said to be the presiding
deity of the village. When Baba came to Shirdi, for the second
time with a marriage party he got down from bullock cart here.
Then the priest of the temple said to him "Welcome Sai".
The nameless fakir began to be called "Sai Baba" from
that time. Baba asked upasani Baba to live in the Mandir for
some time without doing anything. Pilgrims get to their sweet
memories, various leelas of Baba t the place and get spiritual
satisfaction. |

|
|
MARUTHI ALAYAM
|
This temple is opposite to the lane
between Chavadi and Swarakamal. Baba had livid in the temple
in company with Devi Das, Janaki Das and other Sadhus. You have
to put oil in the oil pot of the light. Some break coconuts
for Naivedyam. |
| |
|
|
DWARAKAMAI
|
Baba lived there almost for 60 years.
Once Baba said t his Devotee, this is Dwarawathi. "Whoever
steps here will get Health, and happiness. He will be freed
from all difficulties. "There used to be no doors t Dwarakamayi
and Baba never spoke to any one in secret.
There is Shyni in it. There are also
1. Grinding stone used by Baba for making wheat flour.
2. 2. A big stone where Baba used to bathe. In front of the
Swarakamai in Tin-Roofed shed, there are
a. A oven for cooking
b. b. A Rulasi Kota and
c. c. Wooden Pillar. Touching of the pillar will remove all
pains of the body. There is also stone used by Baba for sitting.
And behind it the Chitrapatham picture of Baba kept by the side
of the wall. On either side of it. There are pictures of a tiger
and a horse. Pilgrims get all happiness by touching them. |

|
CHAVADI
|
It is 50 years away from Dwarakamai.
There are two rooms on the backside of it. In one of them, we
see a table and a wheeled chair. The table was used for placing
the sacred body of Baba and Bathe it. Pilgrims touch them with
reverence for mental satisfaction. In the other room there are
Baba's Photos. Women are not allowed to enter this room: Parayana
of Sai Charitra can be read in the Verandah rooms.
Baba used to sleep every alternate night from 10-12-1910 in
the Chavadi. Procession of Chavadi Festival was used to be celebrate
with great pomp and color.
At present, this Chavadi procession is celebrated on every Thursday
night only from 9.am. to 10.00 pm. |
|
GURUSTHAN
|
It was the place where Baba was seen
for the first time at the age of 16. on Sravana Purnima day
in 1912, Baba's Paduka (slippers) were installed here for devotees
sake. They have the sanctity of the touch of Baba prior to installation.
It was a holy function. Baba gave a Sivalingam to Megha. After
he passed away, the Sivalingam was installed in this place.
Devotees sit here in the Mantapam facing north. It is believed
that those light here and put Dhupam on Thursday and Friday
will enter into the protective circle of Sri Baba's devotees.
Here the Programme of Pradakshina, Dhyana, Japa and Patanam
of Guru Charitam (Baba Charitra) are carried on by devotees.

|
LENDI GARDEN
|
It was called so because a stream
called the "Lendi" used to flow there. Baba used to
visit this garden noth morning and evening every day in 1890
Banba lighted here, in a small pit newly dug. "Nandan Deepa".
It is also called Akhanda Jyothi. Later in 1963, a pillar was
built with rocks and the light were arranged on it. On one side
of the Akhanda Jyothi Pillar there is a Neem tree (Vepa) and
on the other side a Ravi Tree. Devotees will have their Pradakshinas
to them. There are also two other important things near them.
The idol of Dattatreya was installed there. An Unumbara Tree
(Medi) is also there. Pilgrims have their. Pradakshina to them
also. Baba dug a well here. The water of the well, it is said
, has the power of curing all disease. Pilgrims drink its water
without fail. This garden is now used also by devotees for Dhyana,
Japa, Parayana etc. |

|
SAMADHI MANDIR
|
Long after Baba came to Shiridi for
the second time
Santhewada
Deekshit wada and
Buty Wada were built. A Mandir was built in Buty Wada for installation
of the idol of Muralidhar. But later Baba's physial remains
were kept in test in it and is called samadhi mandir. There
is also lifelike white marble statue of Sai Baba installed.
Devotees go there for Darsanam of the Sanadhi and statue. |
