Anandnath Maharaj of Akkalkot, a disciple of the famous Swami of Akkalkot, made an impromptu journey to Shirdi. As Chapter 0 recounts, several residents of Shirdi, including Madhavrao Balwant Deshpande, went for Anandnath Maharaj's darshan in a nearby village. As they were preparing to leave, Anandnath Maharaj suddenly ran and sat in their cart, insisting on coming with them despite protests from the local people. Upon arriving in Shirdi and seeing Maharaj, he declared to the people, "This is a diamond. You don't know its true value," echoing the sentiment of other saints who recognized Maharaj's profound spiritual greatness.
