Indeed, Chapter 20 explains that even though the days of Sai Baba's physical presence are past, those 'past celebrations' and scenes can be made visible in the present 'through the power of firm meditation.' It encourages devotees to meditate on Baba's form from toe to face. The chapter provides a beautiful example: the scene after the noon Aarti. Through meditation, one can still see the Maharaj with his merciful gaze, distributing Udi to devotees, applying it to their foreheads, and then lovingly telling them, 'go, all of you, to your lodgings' to eat. This indicates that spiritual connection and experience can transcend the boundaries of time.
Chapter 20 suggests that past events in Shirdi can still be witnessed. How does the text say this is possible, and what specific scene does it use as an example?
