Sai Baba of these younger days remained a stranger staying under the neem tree for some time and then suddenly he left Shirdi to come back again sometime in 1858, and stayed on there till he left his gross body in the year 1918. However, even this date is not definitely noted. He was first noticed in the outskirts of the village Shirdi, seated under a ‘neem’ (margosa) tree, about the year 1854. In the Divine play it was designed as such, that He subtly inspired this person to call Him by this name, which was most appropriate for His self-allotted mission.Īll that we definitely know of Sai Baba is that his arrival at Shirdi was anonymous. ![]() ‘Baba’ means father as an expression of reverence. One of the persons who first came in contact with him at Shirdi addressed him spontaneously as ‘Sai’ which means Savior, Master or Saint. In fact, in the face of his spiritual brilliance such queries do not have much relevance. Like most of the perfect saints he left no authentic record of his birth and early life before arriving at Shirdi. Sai Baba, a personification of spiritual perfection and an epitome of compassion, lived in the little village of Shirdi in the state of Maharashtra (India) for sixty years.
