Can you narrate the story involving Devidas and the Fakir as described in Chapter 5?

πŸ“– Chapter 5

Chapter 5 of the Sai Satcharitra tells a significant story about a learned individual named Devidas, who was in Shirdi even before Baba's return with the wedding party. Devidas was considered a Guru by many, including Tatyaba. As recounted in this chapter, a Fakir challenged Devidas to a scriptural debate. Devidas, with his profound detachment, defeated the Fakir, who then fled to Vaijapur. Many years later, the Fakir returned and bowed to Sainath, his delusion of being a Guru to Sai having been dispelled. Sai Baba, in turn, always treated him with respect, demonstrating the lesson of humility by maintaining the attitude of 'he is the Guru and I am the disciple.'
