How did Shri Sai Baba interact with those who were sick or had afflictions like leprosy?

The texts describe Maharaj's profound compassion, particularly in his interactions with Bhagoji Shinde, who was afflicted with leprosy. As detailed in Chapter 0, their daily routine involved Bhagoji untying Maharaj's bandages, rubbing his hands, and pressing his body. They would even share a chillum. Maharaj never altered this routine or showed any disgust, demonstrating his complete acceptance and care for all individuals regardless of their physical condition, which was a core part of his daily life.
