About Satānā

Satana is a town and a municipal council in Nashik District in the Indian state of Maharashtra. It is in the taluka of Baglan, which is sometimes called Satana, because of the city's dominance in the taluka. The name "Satana" is derived from "Śāṭyāyani" one of the minor Upanishads of the Muktika canon.

History

Dev Mameledar Yashwantrao Maharaj is the adorable deity of Satana. A Samadhi of Yashwant Maharaj and a big temple have been built in this city. A yatra is held in Margsheesh every year on the occasion of Yashwantrao Maharaj's birth anniversary in Satana. Devotees come from far and wide to see this Yatra. It is said by old people that in 1870, Yashwantrao Maharaj was given the title of "Mamledar", a Government official of Satana.

Yashwantrao Maharaj was a staunch devotee of Swami Samarth. He came to this city to work as a case worker, but became a god. After that there was a severe drought in Satana city in 1800, the residents had no food and drink facilities. At that time Yashwantrao Maharaj helped these people from the government box. Maharaj used to give money to people by taking money out of the box, but not even one rupee was missing from the box. Then people realized that this was not an ordinary man, but God incarnate. After all this, the top government officials came to know that Yashwantrao Maharaj had donated the wealth from the government treasury to the common people, while he was present at that time. But when the officials realized that one rupee in the box was not reduced, they felt very helpless. It is said by some locals that Lord Vishnu appeared to Maharaja after donating his wealth.
