Describe the journey and initial encounter of the man who was averse to idol worship and accompanied his friend to Shirdi.

πŸ“– Chapter 35

Chapter 35 tells the story of a man, a friend of Kaka Mahajani, who was skeptical of saints and opposed to idol worship. Purely out of curiosity, he agreed to go to Shirdi with Kaka, but only after setting the conditions that he would not bow or give money. They traveled from Mumbai on a Saturday night and arrived in Shirdi on Sunday morning. They went to the mosque for Darshan, and the narrative describes a pivotal moment. As the skeptical friend stepped onto the mosque's steps, Sai Baba saw him from a distance and called out, "Why have you come in this manner?" The loving tone of Baba's voice was so strikingly similar to that of the friend's late father that he was left astonished, marking the beginning of the dissolution of his skepticism.
