Chapter 31 introduces a sannyasi named Vijayananda who hailed from Madras. He was on a pilgrimage, having departed with great enthusiasm to travel to Mansarovar, and he also held a vow to eventually go to Japan. Hearing of Sai Baba's great fame while on his way, he developed an intense longing for darshan and decided to stop in the village of Shirdi to see the renowned saint. The chapter highlights this as an example of how Sai Baba draws devotees to His feet from far and wide, connecting disparate places like Madras, Shirdi, and Mansarovar through devotion.
Can you tell me about the sannyasi who is introduced in Chapter 31? What was his name and what was his pilgrimage?
