I heard Damu Anna was involved in the Ram Navami festival. Can you tell me more about that?

Yes, Damu Anna played a significant role in the annual Ram Navami festival in Shirdi. As detailed in Chapter 25, he and the Nimonkars each provided one of the two large new flags that were carried in a procession through the village. This was a regular vow that Damu Anna undertook for many years out of love and devotion. The same chapter mentions that this procession, accompanied by musical instruments, would begin at the house of Kondaji Sutara (the carpenter). The flags would then be taken and tied to the two ends of the Masjid, marking a key part of the festival's celebrations.
