The Chavadi was in a dreadful state when Amir Shakkar was told to reside there. Chapter 22 details that the building was old, dilapidated, and filled with garbage. It was a home to lizards, scorpions, lepers, and dogs. The text explicitly mentions seventeen knee-deep holes, constant dampness from below, rain seeping in from above, and a chaotic environment of wind and cold. Despite these miserable conditions, which the author calls a "pilgrimage of a lifetime," Amir stayed there for nine months based purely on his faith in Sai Baba's words.
Can you describe the living conditions in the Chavadi where Baba ordered Amir Shakkar to stay for his rheumatism?
