Bapusaheb Buti was considered immensely fortunate because the mansion he financed became the final, sacred resting place for Sai Baba's physical body. Chapter 39 recounts his initial despair when Baba's health failed, as he feared his expensive project would be for nothing. However, what seemed like a great obstacle became a supreme blessing. Baba's final wish to be placed in the mansion transformed Buti's creation into the Samadhi Mandir. The text celebrates this outcome, stating, "Blessed is the luck of Buti, in whose own house The body of Shri Sai rests." His devotion and investment were rewarded not just with Baba's presence, but by his home becoming a permanent, holy sanctuary for all time.
The Satcharitra calls Bapusaheb Buti's luck 'blessed'. Why was he considered so fortunate regarding the temple he built?
