Can you summarize the story involving Devidas and a Fakir from Chapter 5 of the Sai Satcharitra?

📖 Chapter 5

Chapter 5 of the Sai Satcharitra narrates an interesting encounter involving a learned man named Devidas, who was already settled in Shirdi before Sai Baba's return. Devidas was a highly respected Guru. A Fakir challenged him to a scriptural debate, but Devidas, with his profound detachment, defeated the Fakir, who then fled to Vaijapur. This story, as detailed in Chapter 5, highlights the spiritual atmosphere of Shirdi and the respect given to wise individuals. Years later, this same Fakir returned and bowed to Sainath, his pride having been humbled through repentance.
