Sai Baba established a structured daily reading for the spiritual welfare of his devotees by assigning the task to specific individuals like Sakharam Hari Jog and Bapusaheb Jog. As detailed in Chapter 18, Bapusaheb Jog followed a consistent routine. After his afternoon meal, he would go to Baba in the Masjid, bow at his feet, receive Udi, and formally ask for permission to begin the reading. Once granted, he would go to Sathe’s Wada and joyfully start the Parayana, or devotional reading, of texts like the Jnaneshwari or Nath Bhagawat, providing explanations of the meaning to the listeners who gathered.
