- ORIGIN OF THE SAMADHI MANDIR -

The Shrine which houses Baba’s Samadhi was originally constructed as a Wada (large private house)

during Baba’s last years in his physical body.

It is built on the land that Baba had tended as a garden. Sai Baba seemed to like growing plants

and in his early days he cleared and levelled this land, which had been used as dumping ground.

Using seeds that he had brought from Rahata, he planted it with jasmine and marigold.

For about three years Baba would water the plants every day and distribute the flowers to the local temples.

The Shrine was built by Shri Gopalrao Mukund Butty (Bapusaheb Butty), the famous multi-millionaire of Nagpur.

He was introduced to Sai Baba by a Lawyer from Nasik "Shri Sakharam Balwant Dhumal",

about ten years before Baba’s Mahasamadhi.
