Every incarnation has an end.
The supreme power that manifests itself in a physical form has to follow certain temporal rules and Sadguru Sai Baba s mortal form came to an end on Vijayadashami day, a Tuesday, the 15th day of October 1918. The day resulted in an enormous grief for the followers of Sai Baba who had the divine fortune of living with Him for several years. These included Bhagoji Shinde, Mhalsapathi, Madhavrao Deshpande, Nana Chandorkar, Booty, Laxmi Bhai, and Tatya. Sai Baba s mortal remains were placed in Booty s bhavan, which was initially constructed for as a temple for Muralidhar, and Sai Krishna has Himself become Murlidhar. Significance of Maha Samadhi During His last moments, Sai Baba in His own characteristic way demonstrated the virtues of devotion, sacrifice and faith.
