For how long was Amir Shakkar ordered to stay in the Chavadi, and what were the rules of his stay?

As narrated in Chapter 22, Amir Shakkar was ordained to stay in the Chavadi for a period of nine months. The main rule imposed on him was a strict prohibition from visiting the Masjid, even for a vision of Baba. He was to remain in the Chavadi, which was old, dilapidated, and uncomfortable, every alternate night. Despite the hardship, especially with his rheumatism, he was to accept Baba's word as his only medicine and endure the conditions of wind, rain, and dampness without complaint. He followed this command faithfully for the entire duration.
