The text mentions Baba extinguishing a flame before leaving for the Chavadi. What is the spiritual significance of this act?

Chapter 37 details specific rituals Sai Baba performed before starting the Chavadi procession. It states that after getting ready, Baba would go to a spot where firewood was kept, move His right big toe there, and then personally wave His hand over the burning flame to extinguish it before setting out. While this was clearly a deliberate and important part of His routine, the provided text describes the action itself without offering any interpretation of its spiritual significance or symbolic meaning. The account focuses on what happened, not why it happened, presenting it as a factual step in the sequence of events.
