Can you give me a detailed description of the Chavadi where Amir Shakkar had to stay for nine months? Why was it such a challenge?

The Chavadi where Sai Baba instructed Amir Shakkar to stay was a place of extreme hardship, making his nine-month stay a significant test of faith. Chapter 22 paints a vivid picture of its condition. It was a very old, dilapidated structure built by Malik Ambar. The text mentions it was home to lizards, house lizards, and poisonous scorpions. It was also a shelter for lepers, and the area was unsanitary, with garbage filling the back and seventeen knee-deep holes in the ground. The physical environment was miserable, with constant dampness from below, rain from above, and a "total chaos of wind and cold." For someone like Amir, who was suffering from rheumatism, these conditions were completely contrary to healing. The challenge was to ignore this harsh reality and place his entire faith in Baba's word as the sole medicine for his ailment.
