As narrated in Chapter 39, Sai Baba first appeared in the Nizam State, under a mango tree near a road. His path crossed with Chand Patil, whose horse was lost. Sai helped Patil find his horse and shared a chillum with him. Sometime later, a wedding was arranged for Chand Patil's nephew with a bride from Shirdi. Sai Baba joined the wedding party on its journey from Dhupkheda to Shirdi for the marriage ceremony. It was through this unexpected turn of events, accompanying the wedding party, that Sai made his arrival in the village that he would make his home.
Can you recount the story of Sai Baba's first appearance and his journey to Shirdi with the wedding party?
