Can you describe Sai Baba's personal rituals and preparations right before he left the Masjid for the Chavadi procession?

πŸ“– Chapter 37

Before the Chavadi procession, Sai Baba had a specific routine. According to Chapter 37, He would wait patiently for Tatya Patil to arrive, even if He was otherwise ready. Tatya would then help Baba stand by putting a hand under His arm. Baba, wearing His kafni and with His satka and chilim, would receive a beautiful golden-bordered shawl from Tatya. Just before leaving, Baba performed a distinct ritual: He would go to a bundle of firewood, move His right big toe at the spot, and then personally extinguish a burning flame with His right hand before finally setting out for the Chavadi.
