How does the text compare Shirdi to other famous pilgrimage sites in India?

📖 Chapter 4

The text elevates Shirdi to a supreme status by equating it with a multitude of revered pilgrimage sites. Chapter 4 explicitly states that Shirdi is our Pandharpur, Jagannath, Dwarka, Gaya, Kashi, Vishweshwar, and Rameshwar. It continues by identifying Shirdi with Badri-Kedar, Nasik-Trimbakeshwar, Ujjain Mahakaleshwar, Mahabaleshwar, and Gokarna. This comparison suggests that for a devotee of Sai, a pilgrimage to Shirdi encompasses the spiritual merit of visiting all these other sacred places. Furthermore, the Samadhi of Sai in Shirdi is described as a gathering of all saints, reinforcing its paramount spiritual standing.
