Shirdi Sai Rasoi

Special Events

Ganesh Chaturthi, also known as Vinayaka Chaturthi, is one of the most vibrant and significant Hindu festivals celebrated in India. This ten-day festival, marking the birth of Lord Ganesha, is a time of great devotion, cultural exuberance, and communal celebration. The festival begins on the fourth day of the Hindu lunar calendar month of Bhadrapada and lasts for ten days, with the final day being the grand immersion of Lord Ganesha's idol in water. However, the true essence of Ganesh Chaturthi lies in the nine days leading up to this grand finale, each of which carries its unique significance and rituals.

Dussehra – A Day of Victory of Good Over the Bad ( Evil)

Our beloved SADGURU Shi Sai Nath Maharaj attained Mahasamadhi on October 15, 1918, at 02.28 PM (also known as Punyatithi), and as said by saints, the samadhi of SADHGURU's is to be celebrated with joy, and now all over the world, devotees celebrate it as a big festival.

Baba always wanted his devotees to follow the right path in their lives and keep feeding the human race. Continuing on the same path with His Holy Grace “Shirdi Sai Rasoi” does Maha Bhandara every year since 2005, started feeding from 5000 people to now 45,000 people on this auspicious day of “MAHA SAMADHI DIWAS”

Initially, Shirdi Sai Rasoi started Bhandara by distributing “Aloo Poori and Halwa” in the year 2005. Then in the year 2009, Shirdi Sai Rasoi started distributing Baba’s one of favorite foods, "Khitchari", with all his grace and permission only. As khitchari is one of the most nutritious and healthiest foods and after dropping Baba’s Vibhuti (UDI) in it and offering it to Baba, it becomes “Maha Prasad".

Continuing the tradition, this huge Bhandara preparation starts a month before when all the Sai devotees of SSR collect the required things and raw materials according to the list. We seek devotees to give more raw materials in Bhiksha to Baba.

A day before, arrangements started with planning with arranging barricades for entry and exit to control the crowd and make a hassle-free pick-up of Prasadam for devotees.

Join hands with us for the sewa and be in the grace of “SADGURU SHRI SAI BABA".
