How was Maharaj perceived by other contemporary saints like Gangagir Baba?

Maharaj was recognized as a being of immense spiritual worth by other saints. The introduction in Chapter 0 recounts an incident with the famous Gangagir Baba. When Gangagir Baba first saw Maharaj, who was simply carrying two earthen pots of water from a well, he immediately perceived his true nature. Gangagir Baba exclaimed to the nearby villagers, "This is purely a gem. His worth is very great." This shows that other advanced holy men could recognize Maharaj's profound spiritual stature even through his simple, everyday actions.
