I heard Baba once stopped a cholera epidemic. How did he do it?

Yes, Chapter 1 details how Sai Baba used a seemingly mundane act to stop a cholera epidemic. He sat down at a grinding stone in the mosque and began grinding wheat. This act was actually a spiritual remedy. The people of the village later explained that the wheat was not just grain but a representation of the cholera epidemic itself. By grinding it in the mill, Baba was symbolically destroying the disease. He then had the resulting flour thrown on the village boundary. The text states that after this was done, "the disease began to recede" and the difficult times ended. This event is presented as an example of Baba’s unique skill and inconceivable power.
