I'm planning a visit to Shirdi. What can I learn from the scriptures about the proper way to approach Baba for Darshan?

Chapter 35 provides some valuable insights into the etiquette of approaching a Guru like Sai Baba. The text explicitly states, 'It is not good to go empty-handed to the door of God, a priest, or a Guru.' Following this principle, the devotee Kaka thoughtfully bought two seers of grapes as an offering before going for Darshan. This act signifies respect and the devotee's desire to give before receiving. Furthermore, the story of Boss Dharamsee highlights the importance of an egoless attitude. While Dharamsee arrived with skepticism, his transformation occurred only after he surrendered his ego and obeyed Baba's command. As Chapter 35 suggests, the best approach is 'Becoming egoless and rolling at his feet,' which leads to the 'festival of happiness.'
