*Vaman Rao was born in Shirdi. His house is one of the five blessed houses that Baba took Bhiksha from.*
*This house is on the right hand side opposite to Sakharam Shelke's house.*
*In Sri Sai Satcharitra Chapter 19, Baba placed a ladder against this house and climbed up on the roof.*
*Then he crossed the roof of Radhakrishna Mai's house and descended on the rear side.*
*Vaman Rao Gondkar after leading a prosperous life died on 15th April 1964.*
*His descendants are given the honor of doing the first pooja to Baba and the Palkhi and Rath.*
