Can you describe Ratanji's first meeting with Sai Baba?

📖 Chapter 14

Upon arriving in Shirdi, Ratanji went to the Masjid for Sai Baba's darshan. Chapter 14 details this first encounter with great reverence. The moment Ratanji saw Maharaj, described as a "heap of merit," he felt a surge of love. He immediately prostrated at Sai's feet. As a devotional offering, he opened a basket of flowers, placed a beautiful garland around Baba's neck, and offered fruits at His feet. Becoming very humble, Ratanji sat near Baba and began his prayer, expressing that he had come with great eagerness after hearing how Baba protects those in great calamity. This marked the beginning of his direct appeal to the saint for help.
