Sai Baba's Image Worshipped by Purandare

A canvas reprint of the original image that was worshipped by Mahabhakta Raghuvir Bhaskar Purandare.

A brief mention has been made of him in Chapter 9 of the Shri Sai Satcharitra.

Upon visiting Shirdi, when taking Shri Sai Baba’s permission, Purandare returned to his home in Bandra. As he was leaving, Baba reminded him, “Build a house as early as possible. I want to come there.”

After the house was completed, Purandare informed Baba and asked when he should perform the house-warming ceremony, hoping to do so before the onset of the monsoon. Baba replied, “On the coming Thursday you will enter your new house, and I shall accompany you.”

Accordingly, the ceremony was fixed for Thursday. Although Purandare was suffering from a slight headache, he completed his daily worship and Aarti. Carrying Baba’s framed photograph in his hands and singing bhajans, he and his family proceeded to the new house.

To his astonishment, Baba walked beside him throughout the journey. He remained with him until His photograph was placed in its designated spot, after which He disappeared miraculously. The house-warming ceremony was then performed.
