Can you describe the journey and initial experiences of the sannyasi named Vijayananda as told in Chapter 31?

๐Ÿ“– Chapter 31

According to Chapter 31, a sannyasi named Vijayananda began a journey with great enthusiasm from Madras with the goal of reaching Mansarovar. Hearing of the world-renowned fame of Sai Maharaj, he decided to interrupt his pilgrimage to visit Shirdi for darshan. Upon arriving, he met Swami Somdevji of Haridwar, who described the journey to Mansarovar as being five hundred miles long and fraught with difficulties like heavy snow and hostile locals. This information left Vijayananda dejected and worried. As Chapter 31 recounts, when he finally took darshan of Sai Baba, Baba's disposition was disturbed, and He told the assembly to send the sannyasi away, leaving the newcomer distressed and confused.
