Shirdi Saibaba Temple, Arizona

Sadguru Shirdi Saibaba, the ultimate master has been blessing his devotees when in life, after Samadhi and till date. The central message of the life and teachings of Saibaba are:

1. Love which is synonymous with universal brotherhood transcending all the man made barriers of segregation (Nationality, Religion, Race, Regionalism, Caste, Creed, Financial inequality and etc.,)

2. Unassailable faith in the existence and mercy of God

3. If you take one step towards Me, I will take ten steps towards you" - Saibaba. Sainathar is the doorstep to the process of salvation
The process of starting a temple for Shirdi Saibaba in the state of Arizona was initiated under the guidance from Saibaba through one of His disciple Shri Saipaadha Meiyadimmai

Construction of the Samadhi-Mandir : Baba came close to him and ordered distinctly - "Build the Wada with the temple. I shall fulfill the desires of all..........after the temple is complete I will come there to stay" and staring at the Wada He added - "after the Wada is complete, we shall use it ourselves, we shall live, move and play there, embrace each other, and be very happy." - chapter 39 - Sri Sai Satcharitra.

We all are overwhelmed by the mercy showered upon us by Shirdi Saibaba who has blessed us with the opportunity to start a temple for Him in Arizona.

"Be wherever you like, do whatever you choose, remember this well that all what you do is known to Me. I am the Inner Ruler of all and seated in their hearts. I envelope all the creatures, the movable and immovable world. I am the Controller - the wire-puller of the show of this Universe. I am the mother - origin of all beings - the Harmony of three Gunas, the propeller of all senses, the Creator, Preserver and Destroyer. Nothing will harm him, who turns his attention towards Me, but Maya will lash or whip him who forgets Me. All the insects, ants, the visible, movable and immovable world, is My Body or Form".

Jai Sairam

About Temple

Thursday is a special day for Shirdi Saibaba and Sai devotees regularly perform a special Sai Aarathi every Tursday evening as far a possible. Under the guidance of Shri Saipaadha Meiyadimmai we five families started Sai aarathi every Thursday evening. As more and more devotees came to know about this aarathi they have been joining our group and now it has become a much awaited weekly celebration for all the members. Sai’s mercy and grace that our group has crossed 50 celebration and is counting. Off late our group is finding it difficult to accommodate all the members at the time of aarathi.

Hence we all have decided under the auspice of Shiri Saipaadha Meiyadimmai we locate a place to start a Saibaba temple so that we can perform regular poojas for Shirdi Saibaba and also continue the Sai aarathi. On venturing into the process now we have come to know that the state of Arizona doesn’t have a Saibaba temple, there are similar Sai devotees group who are performing Sai aarathi and there are a few ardent Sai devotees who regularly fly to LA to pay their homage to Saibaba. Belessed are we who have been given this opportunity to start a Sai temple in the state of Arizona. We believe that it would act as a nodal center for all the Sai devotees to offer their prayers to Saibaba and to serve Him. Sai never sends anyone empty handed from his door step, a promise he made at the time of His Samadhi and is keeping it till date. A true Sai devotee will realize the truth in the above mentioned sentence. The Sai is merciful enough to shower his devotees with material benefits or Spiritual guidance according to what a devotee is longing for. What we are searching is our priority. Apart from material benefit, all are invited to receive the eternal benefits from our Sadguru.
