Sai Baba brought Bhagwantrao Kshirsagar to Shirdi to correct a spiritual neglect within his family. As explained in Chapter 4, Bhagwantrao's father was a friend of Baba's and a devout worshipper of an idol of Vitthal. After the father's passing, all worship, food offerings (Naivedya), and memorial rites for the idol had stopped. Baba directly addressed this when Bhagwantrao arrived, stating, "He never offers food (Naivedya); he keeps me hungry too. He keeps Vitthal hungry too, that’s why I brought him to Shirdi." Baba's purpose was to personally intervene, remind Bhagwantrao of his devotional duties, and restore the worship of Vitthal that his father had so faithfully performed.
