No authentic information is available about the birth and the early life of Sri Sai Baba. It is believed that He was born to Hindu parents, but raised by a Muslim couple. The only records that are available are from the time He made His appearance in Shirdi, a small town near Nashik city of Maharashtra. It is said that He was first seen in Shirdi, sitting in a meditative posture under a Neem tree. The radiance on the face of the young boy, along with the intense meditation He was undergoing, attracted the villagers towards him. It is said that Sri Sai Baba left Shirdi after a period of three years and came back when He was twenty years old, accompanying a marriage party. In Shirdi, He mostly stayed in an abandoned mosque, situated in the outskirts of the village. Later, the mosque came to be known as 'Dwarikamai'. With time, Sai Baba came to be known in places far away from Shirdi. This time, Baba remained in Shirdi for a period of sixty years. It was in Shirdi only that He attained Maha Samadhi (salvation) in 1918.
