Could you describe the Chavadi procession of Sai Baba in detail?

📖 Chapter 51

The Chavadi procession was a grand and joyous event. As chronicled in Chapter 51, it began on Thursday evenings with a grand bhajan held in the courtyard before Baba. A palanquin would be beautifully decorated, and once ready, the procession would set out for the Chavadi. The men and women of Shirdi would joyfully shout slogans of victory. Leading the way was a decorated horse, named Shyam-Sundar or Shyam-Karna, that danced at the front. The procession was a royal affair with horns, bugles, trumpets, flags, banners, and a royal umbrella held over Baba's head, all illuminated by torches held on all sides.
