According to the start of Chapter 8, who were Sai Baba's companions at night in the Masjid?

The introductory verses of Chapter 8 provide a glimpse into Sai Baba's daily life and close companions. The text explicitly states that Baba would sleep in the Masjid. He was not alone during these nights. As Chapter 8 narrates, two of his most intimate devotees, Tatya and Mhalsapati, would sleep there together with him. This detail highlights the close, familial bond Baba shared with his followers and paints a picture of his simple living arrangements in the sacred space of the mosque before the construction of other buildings in Shirdi.
