On
arrival to Shirdi, devotees should immediately get
in touch with the Reception centers of the Sansthan
and should thereafter proceed to the Enquiry Office
for booking their accommodation which is made available
after registration of name and other particulars.
If the accommodation provided is in the common hall,
luggage should always be left in charge of a member
of the party to safeguard it from anti-social elements.
Devotees
should note that all religious functions and Poojas
in the Sansthan premises are to be arranged and
performed through the office of the Sansthan. Necessary
payments for these are to be made at the office
against a receipt.
Boxes
have been provided by the Sansthan in the Mandir
itself to receive the devotees' offerings by way
of Dakshina and Hundis. A complaint/suggestion book
is always kept in the office for the use by the
devotees, in which they are requested to write clearly
their complaints/suggestions along with their full
name(s) and addresses. The Sansthan authorities
take due note of such complaints/suggestions. Donations
should always be sent by Money Orders, Postal Orders,
Crossed and A/c. Payee Cheques or Drafts to ensure
safe delivery of the same. Do not send cash or currency
notes in postal envelopes.Devotees desirous of feeding
the poor can arrange to do so against cash payment
to be made to the Prasadalaya itself or the account
office.
Coupons
are not accepted for this purpose.Medical facilities
are available at the well-equipped Sainath Hospital
run by the Shirdi Sansthan. The Sansthan has not
appointed any representative for the purpose of
collecting donations in cash or otherwise. Devotees
are informed that no donations either in cash or
otherwise should be given to anybody personally.
This is to avoid deceit as well as to prevent devotees
from being cheated by unscrupulous elements.
