How did Laxmichand's experiences on the way to Shirdi, such as his dream and the encounter with the old woman, connect to his eventual meeting with Sai Baba?

The events on Laxmichand's journey served as a prelude to the revelation of Baba's omniscience. Chapter 28 explains that Laxmichand first had a dream about an old man and later encountered an old woman who unexpectedly provided the guavas they had forgotten to buy. This made Lalaji speculate if the two figures were connected. The true connection was revealed when he met Baba, who referenced the dream and other private details of the trip. This confirmed that the seemingly coincidental events were part of Baba's divine leela, demonstrating that his awareness extended far beyond the physical confines of Shirdi.
