Based on the first meeting with Chand Patil, what was Sai Baba's appearance and what were his initial miraculous acts?

📖 Chapter 5

Chapter 5 provides a detailed account of Sai Baba's appearance and actions. He was seen wearing a cap and a 'kafni' (a long robe), with a short stick called a 'satka' under his arm. He was preparing a chillum when Chand Patil passed by. The first miracle was his clairvoyant knowledge of Patil's lost mare; he told Patil exactly where to find it near some streams. Upon Patil's return with the mare, Baba performed a second wonder. To light the chillum, Baba thrust a pair of tongs ('chimta') into the earth, pulled out a glowing ember, and placed it on the chillum, showcasing his extraordinary power to the astonished Patil.
