Chapter 5 of the Sai Satcharitra provides a clear account of the Fakir's journey after his defeat. Following the scriptural debate where Devidas's detachment led to his victory, the Fakir was driven away from Shirdi. The text explicitly states that "He then fled from there and went to live in Vaijapur." However, his story does not end there. The chapter continues by mentioning that after many years had passed, the Fakir returned to Shirdi. Upon his return, humbled and with his delusion of being a Guru dispelled, he bowed to Sainath and became pure through his repentance.
