During the Chavadi procession, Sai Baba was the radiant center of a royal and devotional entourage. Chapter 51 provides a vivid description, noting that Baba's face, already having a golden hue, shone like "gold mixed with copper, like the morning sun" in the light of the lamps. He was flanked by key devotees; Tatya Patil would walk on his left holding a lantern, while another devotee held the end of Baba's cloth on his right. The procession also included the beautifully adorned horse Shyam-Sundar, and the men and women of Shirdi who walked alongside singing bhajans, creating a scene of divine splendor.
