Saibaba The Master

Shri Shirdi Saibaba

Sai Baba, one of the foremost saints of modern India, lived in the small village of Shirdi in the state of Maharashtra for sixty years. Due to his presence there even after his Samadhi, today the small village has transformed itself as a great spiritual center to people from all religions.

Shri Sai Baba, inspite of his great spiritual stature, never publicized himself through discoursing, touring and preaching. Rather, he discouraged unnecessary publicity. But still, his spiritual perfection is still drawing innumerable devotees to him from all over the world. Even after his Samadhi in 1918, Sai Baba still continues to be a dynamic spiritual force which invokes countless devotees for their spiritual and material progress.

Sai Baba did never reveal his original name, time and place of birth, especially his religion and caste, and even the names of his parents. Through this, he has emerged as a solution to all the religious and communal differences that are destroying the world today. He preaches that God is almighty and he has given all the souls on earth equal opportunity to reach him, whichever is the religion they belong to. Sai Baba is the name given to him by his first devotee, Mahalsapathi Sai means Saint and Baba means Father. The name is just an expression of love, reverence and devotion.

Sai Baba never discriminated between the rich and the poor. He was equally indifferent to honour or dishonour shown to him by the people.

Shri Saibaba's Samadhi Mandir

All religious scriptures spell that any spiritual quest does not fulfill without a proper guide or Sadguru. Shri Sai Baba has led many seekers as a Sadguru towards spiritual progress. These seekers are either drawn to him by himself or by other saints and deities.
