After Tirumala-Tirupati Shirdi is the most visited pilgrim place in India today. From a small hamlet, just a little over a hundred years ago, it has grown to a huge centre of pilgrimage. The saint who put Shirdi on the World Map is Sai Baba. Sai Baba had no formal name, no family to which his origins could be traced and no lineage to which he can be ascribed. He left no order, no direct disciples or dogma and has no incarnation. Most importantly, he also did not limit himself to either of the two predominant religions of the times, Hinduism and Islam. Baba never made any claims to teaching or preaching anything in particular. This is why there is no structured Siddhant, or course, on Baba’s teachings and faith. More and more people are attracted to him because of the very simplicity of his faith. His philosophy is above Mantras, Vratas, Poojas and rituals. All he desires is that we offer our hearts, mind and ego to him. Then the five senses will lose their power over us and we will be able to progress spiritually and away from the world’s miseries. Shirdi is a pure Bhoomi where God, in the form of Sai Baba, manifested himself, stayed and showed his Leelas. Sai Baba is thus, unique.
