Some Samādhs and Kabars noted for miraculous powers are given below.
1. Gorakhnāth:—The Samādh of Gorakhnāth lies on Mount Girnār. It is said that when the word Salām is shouted by any one standing on the brink of the hollow wherein the Samādh is said to be, the word “Aleka, Aleka, Aleka” is heard in response.[31]
2. Kevaldās:—The Samādh of Kevaldās stands in Susavāv. It is told that, on one occasion, when a festival was being celebrated in honour of the Bāvā Kevaldās, a nimb tree (Azadirachta Indica) overhanging the Samādh was transformed into a mitho Limbdo (Ailantas excelsa).
3. The Samādh at Kāngā:—In the religious house at Kāngā, a village in the Junāgadh State, there lived a bāvā given to religious austerities. It is said that he took Samādh[32] during life. This Samādh is said to work miracles at times.
4. Similarly, a bāvā in the religious house at Navānagar called Shāradā Matha has taken a Samādh during life, and his remains and the structure over them have become an object of worship.
5. The Samādh of Lālā bhakta:—Lālā bhakta was a native of Sāyolā. He was famous for his piety, and after his death his Samādh was deified. It is said in reference to this Samādh that a meal of dainty dishes prepared for five or six persons by its side, would satisfy the hunger of a company of fifty, if one happened to arrive there at the time of serving the meal[33].
6. Dātār[34] Pir:—The tomb of this Pir is situated on Mount Girnār. Almost all people in Kāthiāwār and many from Gujarāt offer vows to this Pir.[35]
This Pir is also known by the name of Kālā Yavan.[36] It is believed that he has the power of releasing the chain bonds of a person falsely accused with an offence provided he approaches the Pir in chains. The sanctity of this Pir is so great that vows in his honour secure to persons desiring male heirs the birth of sons.[37]
7. Asāmi Pir:—The tomb of this Pir is in Lunār. He is believed to ensure the fulfilment of certain vows made by those who have faith in him.[38]
8. Devalshā Pir:—The tomb of this Pir is situated at Amarān about seven miles from Todia. Many Hindus perform the first hair-cutting ceremony of their children at the shrine of this Pir with an offering of a sweet preparation of ghi, sugar or molasses, and wheat flour. The Muhammadans distribute cooked rice among the Fakirs about this shrine.
