The annual Ram Navami festival in Shirdi featured a procession with two large new flags. As detailed in Chapter 25, these flags were provided by two key participants as part of their long-standing vows: one by the Nimonkars and the second by the devotee Damu Anna. The procession would start from the house of Kondaji Sutara, the carpenter. From there, the flags were taken through the village, accompanied by the sound of musical instruments, in a display of devotion. The procession concluded when the long banners were tied to the two ends of the Masjid.
