The Saibaba Temple in Kolhar, Maharashtra was my 188th visit in September 2016.

Direction to reach baba mandir: While travelling from Pune to Shirdi, after Ahmednagar, 25kms ahead to Shirdi, you can find the baba temple to your left on the main road. 

Baba's blessing / experience:Since i travelled late night, couldnt go inside the temple, but fortunately the lights inside the shrine was on, so from the door gap, took pictures and got darshan.

Panchavati Kalaram Sai

Jai Sai Shyam

The Saibaba temple infront of Kalaram Temple,Panchavati, Maharashtra was my 127th visit in December 2012.

I presume this temple was built very recently, because during my visit to Panchavati in September 2010, this temple wasn't existing.

Panchavati Ram Kund Ghat Sai

Jai Sai Sham

The Saibaba temple in Ram Kund Ghat - Triveni Sangam, Panchavati, Maharashtra was my 126th visit in December 2012. 

Although visited Panchavati in September 2010, fortunately Baba blessed with Darshan only in Dec 2012.

As the names says its a Kund (pond) on the river Godavari in Panchavati where Lord Ram is said to have taken bath. Its the place where one immerse the mortal remains (Arthi) and is said to be absorbed in the river quickly. It is also the place where according to Hindu rituals one performs Shrad's of their beloveds. At the very place is the sangam of three rivers Aruna, Varuna and the Godavari.

Aruna/Varuna is said to be coming from underneath whereas Godavari flows on top of them. Its here where the ashes of Mahatma Gandhi were immersed and to commorate the same Gandhi Memorial (the tall tower in the pic) was built along side the bank, underneath is where Idols of Shri Ram is installed. Just adjacent to Ram Kund is temple of Devi Ganga and Sai Baba temple.

Nasik Mukthidham Birla Mandhir Sai

Om Sai Ram

The Saibaba shrine in Birla Mandhir - Mukthidham, Nasik, Maharashtra was my 51st visit in September 2010.

Muktidham is a marble temple complex honouring various Hindu gods. It is a popular tourist attraction situated in the Nashik Road suburb of the city of Nashik in the western state of Maharashtra in India. It is privately operated through a trust and was built through a generous donation by the late Mr. J.D. Chauhan-Bytco, a local industrialist.

It has replicas of 12 Jyotirlingas, which have been built as per dimension of original deities and have been sanctified by sending them to their respective pilgrimage centers. The temple is made with marble from Makrana in Rajastan, and by Rajastani sculptors. Unique to this temple are eighteen chapters of Geeta written on the walls. Apart from the replicas of all the twelve Jyotirlingas, there are also idols of all major Hindu Gods and Goddesses. Devotees prefer to visit Muktidham Temple during the period of a famous fair “Kumbh Mela”.

The above Saibaba photos were snapped only during my visit in December 2012.

The Saibaba temple in Badravathipet, Solapur was my 104th visit in August 2012.

On my tour, back to Bangalore after darshaning Pandharpur Paanduranga Vittal in August 2012, I had to board the Bangalore express in Solapur.

Bolo Sai Naath

The Saibaba temple in Airport Road, Solapur was my 103rd visit in August 2012.

On my tour, back to Bangalore after darshaning Pandharpur Paanduranga Vittal in August 2012, I had to board the Bangalore express in Solapur. Since I reached the Solapur city 1100 hrs where my train was only at 1930 hrs, enquired the localites of any Baba temple in Solapur city to darshan Baba and to fill the idle time  as well. 

Took a rickshaw from Solapur Railway station to Solapur City Airport road, approximately it took 20-25 mins drive, reached the temple at around 1200 hrs. Although the temple was constructed, there were few portions still under construction.

Amused by the location of the temple, it was pretty big one with no crowd and full peace and calm.
