The Patil initially suffered from a disease that caused him great sorrow. However, upon encountering Baba, his illness miraculously vanished, and he felt as though he had been reborn. Chapter 13 describes how, upon seeing Baba's face, the Patil was overwhelmed with joy and gratitude, shedding tears of love and placing his head at Baba's feet in reverence. He recognized that the initial pain he endured was ultimately beneficial. This profound experience transformed him, and he stayed in Shirdi for a month, filled with devotion. As a testament to his gratitude, he began to visit Shirdi frequently, demonstrating his complete faith and surrender to Sai.
