How does Chapter 39 describe the circumstances of Sai Baba's first arrival in Shirdi?

📖 Chapter 39

Chapter 39 provides a summary of Sai Baba's arrival in Shirdi. It explains that he first appeared in the Nizam State under a mango tree, where he was found by a man named Chand Patil who had lost his horse. After this encounter, Sai Baba arrived in Shirdi unexpectedly as part of the wedding party for Chand Patil's nephew, whose bride was from Shirdi. The chapter emphasizes that while Chand Patil was the one who initially found this "treasure" (Sai), he was merely an instrument. The text clarifies that Sai Baba came to Shirdi of his own accord, driven by a great concern for the spiritual upliftment of his devotees.
