How did high-caste Brahmins and other skeptics react to Sai Baba's presence, according to the account in Chapter 7?

As detailed in Chapter 7, Sai Baba's divine nature had a profound effect on everyone, including those from the highest castes or those who were initially skeptical. The text notes that even the 'best of Brahmins' and Agnihotris, who were keepers of sacred fire, would come and worship Him. In His presence, they would abandon their pride in ritual purity and prostrate themselves before Him. The chapter states this caused amazement and that those who came specifically to 'see the proof' or test Him would, upon seeing Him, become silent and humble, their skepticism replaced by reverence.
