Can you summarize the main events described in Chapter 5 of the Sai Satcharitra?

📖 Chapter 5

Chapter 5 of the Sai Satcharitra, titled "The Re-appearance of Shri Sai," narrates a few key events. It introduces Devidas, a young ascetic who had settled in Shirdi twelve years before Sai Baba's arrival with the wedding party. Devidas was highly respected and even taken as a Guru by Tatyaba. The chapter recounts a scriptural debate where Devidas defeated a Fakir, who then left for Vaijapur. As mentioned in Chapter 5, this same Fakir later returned, his delusion dispelled, and bowed to Sainath. Baba, in turn, always treated him with respect, embodying the lesson "His Guruship to him, and my discipleship to me." The chapter concludes by noting that this story was related by Mahalsapati and previews topics for the next chapter.
