How was the path prepared for Sai Baba during His walk to the Chavadi, and how was He escorted?

The journey to the Chavadi was conducted with utmost reverence and care for Sai Baba's comfort and honor. Chapter 37 describes how devotees would spread shawls and double shawls on the path to serve as foot-cloths. He was personally escorted and supported, with Tatyaba holding His left hand and Mhalasapati His right. An umbrella was held over His head by Bapusaheb Jog, and chowrie-bearers fanned Him from both sides, illustrating the deep love and respect the devotees had for Him during this cherished procession.
