These three devotees had very specific and honored roles in the Chavadi procession. Chapter 37 highlights the deep love between Tatya Patil and Baba, whom Tatya called 'Mama'. Tatya would initiate Baba's departure by putting a hand under His arm to help Him up. During the procession, Tatyaba held Baba's left hand, while Mhalasapati held His right hand, physically guiding and supporting Him. All the while, Bapusaheb Jog provided shelter by holding an umbrella over Baba's head as the group moved towards the Chavadi, showcasing their close and dedicated service.
Can you describe the roles of Tatya Patil, Mhalasapati, and Bapusaheb Jog in escorting Baba to the Chavadi?
