Chapter 20 paints a detailed and affectionate picture of Sai Baba distributing Udi. After the midday Aarti, Baba would stand at the edge of the Masjid with a "most merciful gaze." Devotees would rush to his feet, and he would fill his hands with Udi, placing the sacred ash into their cupped palms. The chapter highlights his personal touch, noting that with "boundless love in his heart," Baba would use his thumb to apply the Udi to each devotee's forehead. Following this blessing, he would lovingly dismiss them to their lodgings for a meal, saying things like, "Go, Bhau, go to eat; go, Anna, go and eat a delicious meal."
