Chapter 33 details Sai Baba's consistent practice involving the Dhuni (sacred fire) and the distribution of Udi. Baba would purchase firewood, often from those who had a surplus, and offer the logs into the ever-burning Dhuni in the Masjid. The sacred ash, or Udi, produced from this fire was then collected and distributed to devotees. The text highlights that this was a daily ritual. Baba would give Udi to devotees at various times—mornings, afternoons, and evenings—ensuring no one was sent away empty-handed. It was also a customary practice to give Udi as a sign of permission when devotees were preparing to leave Shirdi for their homes, which would bring them enthusiasm for their journey.
