SATHE WADA (INSET H.V.SATHE)

 

 

 

 

 

Just behind the Gurusthan was this Sathe Wada. Baba told Hari Vinayak Sathe " Pull down the village wall and build", meaning to build a residential building there and to include the village wall. So he bought the land and built the Wada. (SSS Ch IV). This wada was the sole resting place for the pilgrims who flocked there. When the construction was going on, the walls had to be raised, and some of the branches of the Neem tree had to be cut off. No one dared to touch it, but Baba said "Cut off so much as interferes with the construciton. Even if our foetus lies athwart, the womb must be cut". Still non dared, then Baba came Himself and cut the obstructing branches. This Wada was bought by Navalkar and then by the Sansthan.

DIXIT WADA (INSET KAKA DIXIT)

 

 

 

This Wada is adjacent to Gurusthan. Kaka Dixit was so pleased with the darshan of Baba that he dediced to reside in Shirdi. So he built this Wada on 10.12.1910. In this Wada a small room upstairs was used by Dixit for 'Ekanta Dhyan.' Baba said 'Kaka, remain in your Wada, upstairs, do not go here and there, do not even come to Dwarakamai.' so for nine months Kaka strictly stayed obeyed Baba's orders. Shyama stayed in this WAda and lovingly took care of it. When the Sansthan was formed he moved back to his residence and later this Wada was used as 'Prasadalay' that thoughtfully catered to the needs of the devotees just as Dixit lovingly fed many devotees earlier. Later this same Wada was used as a Tea Canteen for some years.
