The story mentions a series of 'strange coincidences' on the journey to Shirdi. Can you describe at least two of these and explain their collective significance?

Chapter 51 highlights several events that are presented as divinely orchestrated coincidences. The first major one was the portrait of Sai Baba itself, which had been at Kakasaheb Mirikar's house for some time but was uncovered by Madhavrao at the exact moment Kakasaheb Dixit, who longed for Baba's darshan, was present. A second coincidence occurred at the train station. After finding the train completely full and deciding to abandon their trip for the night, a train guard who happened to be an acquaintance of Dixit appeared and arranged first-class seats for them. Finally, upon arriving at Kopergaon station, they unexpectedly met Nana Saheb Chandorkar, who was also on his way to see Baba. The collective significance of these events is that they are portrayed not as random chance, but as the capable Sai actively fulfilling the desires of His devotees and smoothing their path to Him.
