After being in hiding for some time, Baba was encountered by Chand Patil, a resident of Dhup village who had lost his mare. After Baba miraculously helped him find the animal, a connection was formed. The text states that this "gem" (Baba) was later found in Shirdi, having arrived as part of a Muslim wedding party, which is how he returned after his period of absence. The chapter promises to detail how this all occurred.
