Describe Hemantpant's emotional and spiritual state during his first darshan of Sai Baba.

Chapter 2 provides a vivid account of Hemantpant's first darshan. Upon hearing from Tatyasaheb Noolkar that Baba was near, he ran in a hurry and prostrated in the dust at Baba's feet. The joy in his mind was so immense it could not be contained. He felt his eyes had achieved their purpose and his vision was satisfied by a figure unlike any he had ever seen or heard of. All feelings of hunger and thirst vanished, his senses became still, and he felt he had attained a new life from that moment of touching Sai's feet. It was the greatest progress for his soul.
