Can you describe the sannyasi who arrived in Shirdi in Chapter 31 and his original travel plans?

Chapter 31 introduces a sannyasi from Madras named Vijayananda. He was on an ambitious pilgrimage, having departed from Madras with the enthusiastic goal of reaching Mansarovar. The text also notes that he held a vow to go to Japan, showing the determination of his mind. While on his way to Mansarovar, he heard about the glory and fame of Sai Baba. This prompted him to alter his course and stop in the village of Shirdi, as he developed an intense longing to have Baba's darshan, a key event detailed in Chapter 31.
