Turned into another commercialised "fortified" temple
Sri Shirdi Sai Baba Temple的点评
点评：I went for the first time, without much googling, so that I get a first hand experience of my (and my wife's) long-founded belief that it is pristine, well managed for devotees. The experience started with depending on touts for parking first - the temple people or police pretend not to have a clue where to park. These touts sell prasad offering and "donation" items for hefty price, temple being surrounded by big commercial shops, hard to get past them. It was all a money play. Now comes the temple - separate lines for free and paid ("VIP") visitors (why? segregating based on money? Someone needs to ask if Baba would have done this if alive?) Long queue, and they the temple design creates a throttle at every gate till the actual samadhi mandir so that the crowd keeps accumulating. Old people suffered. Only grace was, along the long queues there were a few places for interim seating, and the security personnel's best effort to keep some discipline + snacks and water are available to buy inside (so 2 instead of 1 star). By the time I entered the samadhi mandir, all devotion went to drain. Kind of pushed out.
If you are planning to visit - entire complex and surroundings, and the way the darshan is managed is kind-of fully commercialised. If you are ok, there is no actual need of buying stuff outside for offering. Just get in (either free or paid queue; paid one saves time) and do the darshan and get pushed out (may be less crowd on weekdays; we went on a Saturday). Paid parking for Rs.50/car is available at a road (turn from NH-160, or go straight crossing NH-160 if coming thru local road from Shirdi airport side). Temple gates are around 300m. from parking through local alleys with shops trying hard to sell. You can see some barricades loosely kept in front of entering that road, but that's ok. You can keep mobiles in your car or deposit them near temple entrances (multiple ones are there).

翻译：我第一次去那里，也没怎么上网查资料，就想亲身验证一下我和妻子一直以来坚信的：这里环境优美，管理完善，非常适合信徒。然而，体验一开始就让人头疼，停车只能靠拉客的——寺庙的工作人员和警察都装作不知道该停在哪里。这些拉客的兜售祭品和“捐赠”物品价格不菲，寺庙周围都是大型商铺，很难避开。这一切都是为了赚钱。接下来是寺庙——免费游客和付费（“VIP”）游客要走不同的队伍（为什么？按钱分？真该问问巴巴，如果他还在世，会不会这么做？）。队伍很长，而且寺庙的设计似乎在每个入口都设置了人流瓶颈，直到真正的陵墓殿，导致人流不断聚集。老年人尤其难受。唯一值得庆幸的是，长长的队伍中有一些临时座位，保安人员也尽力维持秩序，而且里面有零食和水可以买（所以给了两星而不是一星）。等我进入三摩地神庙时，所有的虔诚都已荡然无存，感觉像是被人推搡着离开的。
如果你计划参观——整个建筑群及其周边环境，以及朝拜的安排都相当商业化。如果你不介意的话，其实没必要在外面买供品。直接进去（可以排队免费，也可以排队付费；付费排队更省时间），朝拜完就出来（工作日人可能会少一些；我们是周六去的）。路边有收费停车场，每辆车50卢比（从NH-160国道转弯，或者如果你从希尔迪机场方向走当地道路过来，可以直行穿过NH-160国道）。寺庙大门距离停车场大约300米，需要穿过一些小巷，巷子里有很多商店在努力推销。你可以看到路口有一些松散设置的路障，不过没关系。你可以把手机放在车里，或者寄存在寺庙入口附近（那里有好几个入口）。
