Parad Sai

Parad idol of Sai Baba is the divine representation of Shri Sai Baba of Shirdi. He made his first appearance in Shirdi in 1854 and in 1918 when he left His body. All were treated by him alike. Under his umbrella, both the Hindus and Muslims happily took part in each others religious festivals. The caste scheme of the Hindus had no relevance with Shri Sai.

He had introduced the tradition of group worship, group prayer and group dinning for all and would share his Khichri with all. He even showed highest compassion for animals and birds and encouraged his devotees to feed and take care of them.
