Just as the Audumbar and Aswatha trees are considered sacred, Baba held this Neem tree to be sacred. This blessed tree was there already, waiting for Baba to sit under her shade. In ‘Sai Mahima Sthothra’, Upasani refers to this Neem tree as surpassing the ‘Kalpa Vriksha’ and showering Ambrosia of Baba’s grace.Because Baba constantly sat under this Neem tree when He first came to Shirdi The leaves are oozing nectar on account of the healing properties. Many devotees are relieved of their ailments by eating one leaves of this tree. Pradakshina of Gurusthan is done by many devotees early in the morning, and at other times for destruction of their Karma, spiritural enlighenment and fulfillment of their wishes. |
