After his miraculous recovery, how did the Patil express his gratitude towards Sai Baba?

Following his healing, the Patil was overwhelmed with joy and felt as if he had been reborn. Chapter 13 recounts how he immediately set out for Shirdi to have Baba's darshan. Upon seeing Sai Baba's face, his joy overflowed, and he shed tears of love, placing his forehead on Baba's feet in a gesture of complete surrender. He acknowledged that the strange, painful punishments in his dreams were ultimately beneficial. Recognizing the favor as something he could never repay, he concluded that total surrender—placing his head at Sai's feet—was the only settlement possible, demonstrating a profound sense of faith and gratitude.
