How did Anandnath Maharaj of Akkalkot end up coming to Shirdi, and what was his impression of Maharaj?

Anandnath Maharaj's arrival in Shirdi was quite spontaneous. As documented in Chapter 0, several residents from Shirdi, including Madhavrao Balwant Deshpande, had gone to Savargaon for his darshan. After their visit, as the group was preparing to leave for Shirdi, Anandnath Maharaj suddenly ran, sat in their cart, and declared, "I am coming with you." Despite attempts by others to stop him, his decision was final. Upon reaching Shirdi, he gave his profound assessment of Maharaj, calling him "a diamond" and stating to the locals, "You don't know its true value."
