Samadhis are generally square or rectangular platforms dedicated to the memory of the saints and sages. They are built with stones or bricks and contain the ashes or remains of the great departed souls. They also bear their photographs or statues and inscriptions briefly describing their life and work.

The premises where the Samadhi is built also houses a beautiful garden or vatika and a temple. The Samadhi hosts a bhandara or free food festival on the first of January every year.
