Sailani Baba`s Dargah, Buldhana, Maharashtra India

Lonar Crater Sailani Baba wandered the forests and tamed many wild animals such as tigers, lions and other cats. His shrine is located in the Buldhana district of Maharashtra, near Aurangabad. The rich dresses worn by most saints are probably an artist`s imaginative depiction of the `rutba` or spiritual stage the saint had attained. Promises of offerings to the Saint are, therefore, made with various motives, and on fulfilment of the desires, the things promised, such as `galaf`, sweets, etc., are offered.
