How does Chapter 41 connect the story of the Holi festival meal with the arrival of Sai Baba's portrait?

📖 Chapter 41

Chapter 41 skillfully links two separate events to illustrate Sai Baba's divine play, or Leela. The chapter begins by referencing a previously told story where Sai gave the narrator a dream, promising, 'On a Holi festival day, I am coming to your house for a meal today.' It then introduces the main narrative of the chapter: the miraculous arrival of Sai's physical portrait. As Chapter 41 reveals, the person who brought this portrait was Alli Mohammed, and he arrived with it on that very same Holi festival day, just as the narrator and others were about to sit for their meal. This perfect timing is presented as a fulfillment of Sai's dream-promise, demonstrating how He fulfills desires at the exact right moment through unexpected means.
