Chapter 5 details the precise process Baba followed. After being refused oil, he first returned to the mosque and placed dry wicks in the lamps. He then took his tin pot, which held a minuscule amount of oil, and poured water into it. In a crucial step, he drank this mixture himself, an act described as "making it an offering to Brahman (the Supreme)." After this ritualistic act, he took plain water and poured it into the lamps, completely soaking the wicks. Finally, he lit the water-soaked wicks with a match, and they began to burn brightly, lasting the entire night without a drop of actual oil.
Could you explain the specific steps Baba took to perform the miracle of lighting lamps with water?
