Can you explain the story of how Alli Mohammed acquired the portrait of Sai Baba as told in Chapter 41?

Certainly. Chapter 41 provides a detailed account from Alli Mohammed himself regarding the acquisition of the portrait. While wandering the streets in Mumbai, he noticed a merchant selling beautiful pictures of various saints and holy men. As he perused the collection, one specific portrait of Sai Baba deeply appealed to his heart, standing out from all the others. As the chapter mentions, Sai was already his worshipped deity, so seeing the image made him eager to possess it. Without hesitation, he paid the price in cash, brought the portrait home, and hung it on his wall. For three months, he joyfully took Darshan of it daily, demonstrating his great love for Baba before he eventually brought it to the narrator.
