Chapter 39 of the Sai Satcharitra specifically praises the women of Shirdi for their blessed and singular faith. Their devotion was expressed through song in their daily lives. The text beautifully illustrates this by stating, 'While bathing, grinding, or pounding grain, they sing of the extraordinary Sai.' These were not just idle songs; the chapter notes the profound effect of their devotion, saying, 'Blessed, blessed is their love; they sing the best of songs. Hearing even a little of them, the mind finds deep peace.' This highlights a form of continuous, integrated worship woven into the fabric of their everyday chores.
