Shri Sai Satcharita (श्री साई सत्चरित) is a biography based on the true life stories of Sai Baba of Shirdi. Authored by Govind Raghunath Dabholkar alias Hemadpant, the original edition of the Sai Satcharita was published in Marathi on 26 November 1930. A subsequent English edition was soon published in 1944, by Nagash Devastate (N.V.) Gunaji, translated from the original Marathi edition.

In 1910, when Hemadpant came to Shirdi, he observed a miracle by Sai Baba in which baba had prevented the raging cholera epidemic from entering Shirdi by grinding wheat on a grindstone and dispersing them around the borders of the Shirdi village.

Witnessing this event is believed to have inspired Hemadpant to document the leelas of Sai Baba of Shirdi. Hemadpant soon sought the help of "Madhavrao Deshpande" alias Shama who advocated his cause before Sri Sai Baba himself. In 1916, Sai Baba gave his consent, stating,

"You have my full consent to write my life history. Take notes and keep them. If my leelas are recorded, sins committed through ignorance will be dissolved. When my leelas are heard and/or read with love and devotion, the cares and troubles of worldly life will be forgotten."

This event, mentioned in the second chapter of Sri Sai Satcharita, marked the beginning of this great book. Hemadpant wrote it at his residence called Sai Niwas in Bandra, Mumbai. Sai Niwas is more than 100 years old today and still carry forward the tradition of Sai Bhakti (Sai Devotion) for numerous Sai devotees across the world. Shri Sai Satcharita also mentions about Sai Niwas (Chapter 40: Attending Mrs.Deo's Udyapan Ceremony as a Sannyasi with two Others (Trio) and Hemadpant's House in the Form of His Picture) where this divine holy book was written. The book consists of 9450 verses spread over 52 Chapters.

Hemadpant is believed to have begun writing the book in 1922. He died after finishing the 51st Chapter in 1929. The desk on which Hemadpant wrote the manuscript is well preserved and is placed in the same room in Sai Niwas on which he sat and wrote the book. Besides the desk, other memorable, such as Hemadpant’s turban, etc. have also been well preserved.
