An Indian spiritual master and fakir, Shri Sai Baba was respected and worshipped by both Hindus and Muslins, in his own lifetime. Today, even a century after his demise, Shri Sai Baba is still revered by all religions in India.

From Shri Sai Baba’s teachings, his devotees imbibe positive aspects from both Hindu and Muslim religions. The mosque in which he lived was named Dwarakamayi, showing the beautiful amalgamation of a secular practice. Shri Sai Baba used to famously say “Look to me, and I shall look to you” and “Allah tera bhala karega”, showing his respect for the two major religions practiced in the country. Many of Shri Sai Baba’s devotees believe that he was an avatar of the Hindu god Dattatreya

In keeping with the rituals followed at the Shri Saibaba Samadhi Temple in Shirdi, the Shirdi Sai Baba Temple in Faridabad conducts a palki every Thursday, offering devotees a chance to participate in the holy pilgrimage.
