According to Chapter 9, what were the consequences for devotees who did not adhere to Sai Baba's instructions about leaving Shirdi?

Chapter 9 explicitly details the negative consequences for devotees who disregarded Sai Baba's commands regarding their departure. It is described as a core characteristic of the Shirdi pilgrimage that leaving without Baba's permission invites trouble. The chapter mentions that those who acted outside his orders suffered greatly on their journey, with some even being looted by thieves. In another example, those who were told to eat before leaving but left hungry in a hurry found themselves stranded without a carriage. The experience of the Noolkar and Dixit families, who found their train delayed after skipping a meal Baba had arranged, is also cited in Chapter 9 as a testament to this rule.
