Chapter 20 paints a vivid picture of the scene at the Masjid in Shirdi following the midday Aarti. Sai Baba, with a merciful gaze, would distribute Udi to the gathered devotees. The text describes how loving followers would rush to embrace His feet and behold His face, enjoying the shower of sacred ash. Baba would take handfuls of Udi, place it in the devotees' cupped hands, and lovingly apply it to their foreheads with his thumb, his heart filled with boundless love. Afterwards, as Chapter 20 recounts, He would affectionately dismiss them, saying things like, "Go, all of you, to your lodgings" and encouraging them to eat a meal.
Can you describe the scene at Shirdi after the noon Aarti, specifically how Sai Baba interacted with His devotees?
