The Satcharitra says Baba was 'hidden' and then 'found' in Shirdi. How does Chapter 5 explain his reappearance?

📖 Chapter 5

Chapter 5 of the Shri Sai Satcharitra explains that Sai Baba had been 'hidden' for a period before his reappearance. The text poetically states that this 'gem' was eventually 'found' in Shirdi, arriving as part of a Muslim wedding party. This wedding party belonged to the family of Chand Patil, the man from Dhup village who first encountered Baba under a mango tree. Therefore, the narrative in Chapter 5 directly links the chance meeting with Chand Patil and the recovery of his lost mare to Baba's subsequent return to Shirdi, which would become his permanent home.
