Can you provide a biographical sketch of the devotee Balaram Dhurandhar, including his family background and key life events?

📖 Chapter 51

Balaram Dhurandhar was a supreme devotee of Sai Baba, born on February 19, 1878, in Mumbai into a well-known Alankar Pathare Prabhu family. As detailed in Chapter 51, his family members were devout Rama-devotees with simple, faultless conduct. Balaram, however, found his refuge in Vithala. He was highly educated, holding the title of Advocate, and was an expert in philosophy. Renowned for his sharp intellect and pure thinking, he also engaged in intense social service. His spiritual journey led him to gain expertise in the Bhagavad Gita and Dnyaneshwari. His life's journey concluded at a young age on June 9, 1925, when he merged into Brahman.
