Can you describe the hospitality shown at Dev's Udyapan ceremony and whether the three uninvited guests were included?

πŸ“– Chapter 40

Dev's Udyapan ceremony was conducted with great respect and adherence to tradition. The source material from Chapter 40 indicates that the Sanyasi and his two companions, who were actually Sai Baba in disguise, were fully included in the hospitality. They sat down to eat with the host's family and were "thoroughly satisfied by the meal." After the feast, all guests participated in rituals such as Uttaraposhan (final sipping of water) and Shuddhachaman (rinsing the mouth). Furthermore, Dev offered everyone, including the uninvited guests, sandalwood paste, flowers, betel leaves, perfume, and rosewater with great respect and joy. The text confirms that even though they came uninvited, they were served and treated as honored guests.
