Baba's Samadhi and Temple

 

One night both Shama and Bapu Saheb Buty dreamt that Baba wanted the

latter to build a wada and a temple. H.S.D. went to Baba to verify this

with Shama.

Shama : Deva what mysterious wonders you are working?

Baba, (shutting his ears): I am in my own place and say nothing to

anyone.

Then Baba was asked for permission to build and he gave it.

Later Buty wanted to instal Murlidhar's image in the central hall

without having a special garbagriha Baba's consent was asked.

Baba., After the temple is built, we will reside there.

When Baba was unwell and fast approaching his end, he said to Bayyaji

and others. " I am going. Place me in the (Buty) Wada. Brahmins will

reside near me " .

Buty did not wish to reside there or introduce Murlidhar after Baba

passed away and he agreed to Baba's remains being placed in the Wada.

Then Hindus and Moslems had a hot contest as to where Baba's mortal

remains should be interred and the local Mamlatdar ordered a plebiscite

to be taken through mahajars. The Hindus, by a large majority voted that

Baba's remains should be placed in Buty wada and that was done. Baba's

samadhi is now there.
