Chapter 29 of the Sai Satcharitra recounts the arrival of a group of devotees from the Madras region, who were famous for their devotional singing. This group had gathered in Shirdi for Sai Baba's darshan while on a pilgrimage to Kashi. The text identifies them as travelers and notes that their tradition was of the Ramdasi sect. They performed their devotional singing with great enthusiasm in Baba's presence and attained peace after having his darshan. As a sign of his pleasure, the chapter mentions that Baba gave them eight rupees and eight annas. This story illustrates one of the many instances of devotees traveling to see the generous saint.
