The land that gave many seers and seekers, India has produced the unique Saint whose message is unanimously accepted as Universal both in the East and in the West. Sai Baba of Shirdi's message of Universal brotherhood, Religious tolerance, Love and compassion to the fellowmen embodies the eternal truth in simple terms.

Guru Poornima is the day of celebration commemorating the virtues of Sadguru, the Master that guides one in his/her pursuits, material or spiritual. For the devotees of SHIRIDI SAI BABA, GURU POORNIMA day is very important to be remembered. In 1897 when the devotees asked for the permission to celebrate a fair or "Urus", Baba replied in the affirmative. Later, similarly the devotees got the approval from Baba for "Sandal" procession and "Ram Navami" festival to celebrate in Shirdi. But GURU POORNIMA was the only celebration that Baba himself stressed to be celebrated. By doing this, Baba has placed enormous significance to this festival.
