Can you summarize the main story that begins in Chapter 31 of the Shri Sai Satcharitra?

πŸ“– Chapter 31

Chapter 31 introduces a compelling story about a sannyasi named Vijayananda from Madras. As the chapter narrates, he was on a determined pilgrimage to Mansarovar and eventually Japan. Hearing of Sai Baba's great fame while on his journey, he decided to stop in Shirdi for darshan. Upon arriving, he met Swami Somdevji, who described the extreme hardships of the journey to Mansarovar, which left Vijayananda feeling dejected. When he finally had Baba's darshan, he felt pleased, but was then confused when Baba suddenly became disturbed and ordered the sannyasi to be sent away. This initial encounter, as detailed in Chapter 31, sets the stage for a lesson in faith and surrender.
