Guest guest Posted September 2, 2008 Report Share Posted September 2, 2008 (Photos courtesy : Sai Bhakta Dr.Vinni, Shirdi- Author of Ambrosia in Shirdi ) HOUSES THAT BABA VISITED IN RAHATA VES (ARCH) At this Arch the villagers came with band and music to receive Baba whenever He went to Rahata. With a great elate ceremony they accompanied Him in procession when He returned to Shirdi. KUSHALCHAND'S HOUSE MARUTHI MANDIR Laxman Govind Munge states that he first visited Baba in 1890 Baba then stayed at this Maruti Mandir, Rahata. He had gone to Rahata for help, to get funds for his marriage and Baba provided the money through His Leela. IDGAH A short distance from Kushalchand's house is this Idgah. One Fakir from Ahmadnagar named Jawahar AH came to Rahata with his disciples, and stayed near the Veerbhadra temple. This Fakir was very learned and had a sweet tongue, and hence many devout villagers came to him and respected him- With the help of these villagers he started to build an Idgah. (a wall before which Muslims pray on Idgah day) near the Veerbhadra temple. There was some quarrel on account of this and Jawahar Ali had to leave Rahata. So he came to Shirdi and started acting as Baba's Guru. He took Him away to Rahata. But the devotees of Baba could not bear to pan with their Sadguru, so they went in a deputation to bring Baba back. Baba was standing near this Idgah and they told Him of their wish and finally succeeded in bringing Baba back to Shirdi (Ref. ESS, Ch.V).
