Shirdi&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ramnavami : March/April &lt;br /&gt;Guru Purnima : July &lt;br /&gt;Shirdi Vijayadashmi (Sri Sai Punyatithi) October &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;h3&gt;Ramnavami in Shirdi&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ramanavi is one of the most important festivals celebrated with great excitement and fanfare. In the year 1897 Goplarao Gund proposed holding in Urus in name of Saibaba in gratitude of a child which he was granted after so many childless years. Saibaba conceded to celebrate his urus on the condition that it be celebrated on Ramnavami. This was indeed an ingenious touch of Saibaba bringing together the Hindus and Muslims together. A new thought arose in his mind and he costed a letter thus. There is some provindential arrangement in the fact that the Urus or fair is celebrated in Shirdi on the Ram Navami day. The Ram Navami day is very dear to all the Hindus then why not begin the Ram Navami festival the celebration of the birth of Shri Ram on this day here. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;h3&gt;Gurupurnima In Shirdi&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Gurupurnima or Full Moon is also a wonderful time to visit Shirdi. It is the time to honor the Guru and seek his special blessing. Quite a significant festival in Shirdi Guru Purnima was the only festival which Saibaba has asked his devotees to celebrate. The festival originated in the Buddha’s time when the monks used to Tate diksba (instructions on their spiritual practice) at the beginning of the annual four month rains-retreat. The practice was then borrowed be the Jain tradition and later the Hindus.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;h3&gt;Shirdi Vijayadashmi&lt;/h3&gt; &lt;br /&gt;Vijayadashmi is a big festival in Shirdi, venerated as a holy day when Shri Saibaba left his mortal body for heavenly abode. The festival is also celebrated as Shri Sai Punyathithi in Shirdi attracting great number of devotees from all over the world. Various religious activities are arranged Great number of people flock to Shirdi during this Festival. Baba left his mortal coil on the 15 th October 1918. Two years before i.e. in 1916 Baba gave an indication of his passing away. It was as follow. On the Vijayadashami (Dasara) Baba, all of a sudden got into wild rage in the evening, when people were returning from seemolanghan (Crossing the border of the village). Taking off His head-dress, Kafni and Langota etc.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1'
