The Chavadi procession was a grand and joyous event. According to Chapter 37, as the procession left the Masjid, the atmosphere was filled with celebration, with fireworks, torches, and music from horns, trumpets, mridangas, and veenas. Key participants included Tatya Patil, who would help Baba stand and place a golden-bordered shawl on Him, and Mhalasapati, who held Baba's right hand while Tatya held the left. Bapusaheb Jog held an umbrella over Baba's head. The procession was led by the decorated horse Shyamakarna, and the air was filled with devotees chanting Sai's name, carrying flags, and dancing with joy.
