Can you explain the tradition of the Ram Navami flags in Shirdi involving Damu Anna?

During the yearly Ram Navami festival in Shirdi, a significant tradition involved a procession with two large new flags. As detailed in Chapter 25, one of these flags was provided by the Nimonkars, while the second was supplied by Damu Anna as part of a regular vow he had undertaken. This act was a testament to his uninterrupted love and devotion over many years. The procession would begin at the house of Kondaji Sutara, the carpenter, and proceed with musical accompaniment. The ceremony concluded when the long banners were tied to the two ends of the Masjid, a practice well-known to the local residents.
