Can you provide details about the sannyasi from Madras who is featured in Chapter 31?

Chapter 31 introduces a sannyasi named Vijayananda who hailed from Madras. He was on a pilgrimage, departing with great enthusiasm to go to Mansarovar, and also held a vow to travel to Japan. While on his journey, he heard about the glory of Sai Baba, who was famous and world-renowned. This created an intense longing for darshan, compelling him to stop in the village of Shirdi to see the great saint. As Chapter 31 illustrates, this is an example of how Baba draws devotees from far and wide to His feet.
