The Samadhi Mandir is the place where the mortal remains of Shri Sai Baba are entombed.  The 'Samadhi' is built in white marble, with ornamental borders of beautiful inlay work.  A magnificent idol of Shri Sai Baba carved out in Italian marble is there along the 'Samadhi'.  The artist Late Shri Vasant Talim from Mumbai had sculpted this masterpiece with the direct inspiration of Shri Sai Baba.   The statue assumes almost a reality in which the devotees see Him alive, as if the Master is himself sitting there benedicting his children.  The chief attraction lay in his eyes with compassionate moisture in them.  When his gaze falls upon a devotee the eyes seem to be probing into the innermost recesses of mind.

This was installed in the year 1954, before which there was a portrait placed on the 'Samadhi' dais.  The ambience of the Samadhi temple where the Supreme Master is resting eternally, is enveloped with overwhelming serenity and all pervading peace.  This is the Royal Court of Lord Sai, the Spiritual Emperor of the Universe adorning a throne with a stately gold umbrella over Him.

The whole marble structure comprising of the 'Samadhi' and the idol makes a square platform with three steps positioned in its centre and a grill around it.  In the front of 'Samadhi' there is a big conference hall in which 500 people can stand comfortably at a time.

Samadhi Temple is a double storied building with a basement.  A few rooms are used for the office of temple administration.  There is a Gold 'Kalash' on the steeple of the temple, which was installed in the year 1952 on the Vijay Dashmi day (Dussehra).

One of the rooms on the side of the conference hall houses all the articles used by Sheri Sai like his long shirts 'Kafni' , begging bowls, baton (Satka), a few clay pipes and leather slippers (Paduka) - all what he possessed in his Royal Poverty 'fakiri'.  Besides these articles the ornamental dressings of the horse 'Shyam Sundar' and other items of the palanquin procession in his days are also displayed.  One can have a look at them from the main hall itself through the glass window.  The Shirdi Sai Sansthan Trust preserves all the articles.  

All the formal worship is offered to Shri Sai in the Samadhi Temple only, including the sacred bath and Aartis.
