Can you explain the relationship between Sai Baba, Devidas, and the Fakir as described in Chapter 5?

Chapter 5 details a complex and instructive interaction between these three individuals. Devidas was a wise man who had settled in Shirdi twelve years before Baba's arrival with the wedding party and was regarded as a Guru by many, including Tatyaba. A Fakir was brought before Devidas for a debate, which Devidas won, causing the Fakir to flee. Later, the Fakir returned with a changed heart and bowed to Sai Baba. The most profound part of this narrative, as highlighted in Chapter 5, is Baba's reaction. Despite the Fakir's initial pride and subsequent repentance, Baba consistently treated him with respect, maintaining the feeling that "he is the Guru and I am the disciple." This act demonstrated Baba's profound humility and detachment.
