Kakasaheb Dixit's desire to build in Shirdi began after his second darshan in December 1909, when he wished to become a resident. His initial idea was relatively modest. As explained in chapter 4, his first thought was to 'take twenty-five shares and build a tin roof,' which he felt would be convenient for pilgrims. However, this idea soon grew in scope. The text notes that later, the thought 'I should build a Wada' became a firm decision in his mind, culminating in the foundation being laid for the stone Wada the following year.
