Can you explain the series of events that led Kakasaheb Dixit to travel to Shirdi with Sai Baba's portrait?

Kakasaheb Dixit's journey to Shirdi was orchestrated through a series of remarkable events detailed in Chapter 51. While Dixit was eager to visit Shirdi, his trip was set in motion when Nanasaheb Panshe and Appasahib Gadre happened upon Madhavrao Deshpande and directed him to meet Dixit at Mirikar's house. There, Madhavrao and Dixit planned to travel together. The plan was solidified by a miracle when Balasaheb Mirikar unveiled a portrait of Sai Baba that was at the house for repairs. This very portrait was then entrusted to Madhavrao, and he and Dixit joyfully set out for Shirdi with it, viewing it as traveling in Baba's own company.
