The nights Baba was scheduled to be at the Chavadi were marked by vibrant celebrations. According to Chapter 37, a bhajan group would gather at the Masjid, and the devotional singing would continue in the pavilion until midnight. The scene was elaborately set with a beautiful chariot, a Tulsi altar, and Baba seated in the middle of the devotees. The atmosphere was filled with music from cymbals, wooden clappers, mridangas, and tambourines, creating what the text calls a "storm of bhajan." The entire area was decorated with lit torches, a palanquin, arches, and flags, transforming the procession into a grand festival.
