Another of Pune’s holistic village is the historic and spiritual village of Dehu. Known have housed another famous saint, Sant Tukaram, localities of this village have a seemingly superficial but interesting tale to tell. Saint Tukaram was a man of virtue, kindness wisdom and above all, he was extremely compassionate towards every living being. This character and persona was not just limited to the land he lived on or the country he worked for, it was spread across the world and also to the likings of Gods above. It is believed that Vishnu {the Hindu god} was so impressed with Saint Tukaram that he sent his own vehicle, the Garuda, to escort saint Tukaram to Vaikunth {the Adobe of Vishnu}, in his flesh and bone.

In the memory of this event, a temple was later erected on the banks of Dehu from where the Garuda took off to Vishnu’s home.
