Can you describe what Sai Baba looked like and was doing when Chand Patil first saw him?

📖 Chapter 5

Certainly. When Chand Patil first encountered Sai Baba, the scene was quite memorable. As detailed in Chapter 5 of the Shri Sai Satcharitra, Baba was sitting under a mango tree. His appearance was that of a Fakir; he was wearing a cap on his head and a kafni on his body. He also had a short stick, known as a 'satka', tucked under his arm. At that specific moment, he was occupied with preparing a chillum, a type of smoking pipe, by crushing tobacco. It was from this position that he called out to the passing Chand Patil, inviting him to rest and smoke, which began their significant interaction.
