As per stated in 'Guru Charitra', Shri Nrusimha Saraswati went away to the Himalayas for doing his Tapascharya (Penance). He took his Samadhi there itself. Nearly after about 300 years, a large anthill grew on and around his body. One day, accidentally, a wood cutter came there. While cutting trees, his axe hit the anthill. He was taken aback by the view of blood stains on his axe. He tried and cleared the anthill and lo! he saw a Yogi Purush (Holy Sage) engrossed in deep meditation. After completion of his meditation, the Holy Sage opened his eyes. He consoled the shocked woodcutter and told him that it was his divine will to re-appear in this world, to complete his mission of eradicating the evil powers from this universe.
Swami had visted many pilgrimage places like Haridwar, Benaras, Rameshwaram, Puri, etc. Afterwards he visited Mangalvedha (Solapur, Maharashtra), and stayed there for some time. He came to Akkalkot (Solapur, Maharashtra) in 1856 and stayed there for the rest of his life i.e. about 23 years. There are many great disciples of Swami. Some of them are Shri Cholappa, Shri Balappa, Shri Ramanand Beedkar Maharaj, Shri Dev Mamledar, etc. During his stay in Akkalkot, Swami enlightened many lives and showed a ray of hope to innumerable devotees. Swami was known as 'Krupa Sindhu'. He is the third avatar (incarnation) of 'Datta Guru'. Swami was well-versed and knew many Vedic Literatures such as the holy Vedas. He performed various miracles to save his devotees from evil powers. He was a MahaYogi - A MahaPurush possessing great spiritual powers.
His devotees and disciples used to chant the mantra - "Shri swami samarth" so as to worship him. People of all religions came to take his blessings. He never discriminated between people. He treated everyone equally. He used to visit Mosques, Dargahs along with Temples. He usually sat under a huge Banyan tree on the outskirts of Akkalkot. The news of his arrival to Akkalkot spread like a wildfire. Due to this various dignitaries and famous personalities visited Akkalkot. Swami would always be accompanied by his disciples namely Cholappa and Balappa, wherever he would go. Swami oftenly muttered some phrases which only some were able to understand.
Many people tried to take Swami to their home, but only those became successful who worshiped him truly from the core of their heart. Swami always kept away from worldly things and hence he would donate all the offerings that were made to him, to the poor and helpless. Swami Samarth were Guru (Perceptor) to many great souls like Sai Baba of Shirdi, Gajanan Maharaj of Shegaon, Shri Ramakrishna Paramahansa, etc.
Shri Swami Sut alias Hari Bhau were the most dedicated devotee of Swami Maharaj. Swami Maharaj had blessed him and made him his Sut (Son). Swami ordered him to go to Mumbapuri (Mumbai) and build a Muth (Holy Shrine like Temple) there. Swami also gave him his Silver Padukas and told him to establish them in the Muth. This was an indication that Swami were going to take MahaSamadhi(The last conscious Communion with God).
Swami, according to his earlier indication, were ready to take Samadhi. Before that Maharaj had a keen desire to meet his Sut for the last time. Hence efforts were made to bring Swami Sut back to Akkalkot from Mumbai. But by hearing news of Swami's Samadhi, Swami Sut was shocked and so he decided to end his life prior to that of Swami. And at last he succeeded and took Samadhi before Swami Maharaj. Then on 30th April, 1878 Swami Samarth Maharaj took MahaSamadhi in front of his innumerable devotees. Grief and sorrow spread throughout Akkalkot. Every single person was weeping and grieving.
The Banyan tree under which Swami took Samadhi is still standing tall on the outskirts of Akkalkot. Even today after so many years, his devotees feel his presence everywhere around them. Swami always said
"Bhiu Nakos, Mi Tujhya Pathishi Ahe (Do not fear, I am always there with you)".
