How does the story in Chapter 41 connect a dream about the Holi festival to the arrival of a photograph of Sai Baba?

Chapter 41 of the Sai Satcharitra masterfully weaves together a dream and a real-world event. The chapter begins by recalling a previous story where Sai Baba appeared to the narrator in a dream, promising to visit for a meal on Holi festival day. The narrative then explains the "miracle" of how this promise was fulfilled. On the very day of Holi, right at the peak moment when the narrator and their family were about to begin their festive lunch, a man named Alli Mohammed arrived unexpectedly. He brought with him a physical portrait of Sai Baba. As Chapter 41 explains, this was a clear divine play (Leela), as Sai fulfilled His dream-promise of being present for the meal through the timely and unanticipated arrival of His own image.
