Chapter 42 seems to mention conflicting lunar days (tithis) for Baba's passing. Was it on Dashami or Ekadashi?

Chapter 42 provides a nuanced explanation of the timing of Sai Baba's Mahasamadhi that addresses this apparent conflict. The text states his body passed away on the day of Vijayadashami, which corresponds to the Dashami tithi. However, it clarifies the exact moment by noting that the bell struck twelve-thirty, at which point 'the period of Dashami was completed' and 'Ekadashi dawned.' Therefore, while the event occurred on the calendar day known as Dussehra (Dashami), the precise time of his departure was during the Ekadashi tithi. Chapter 42 reconciles this by explaining that the tithi at sunrise is what determines the day's festival, in this case, Dussehra.
