Based on the provided excerpts from Chapter 14, the title 'Maharaj' is used as a term of respect for Sai Baba of Shirdi, not Gajanan Maharaj. When the Parsi merchant Ratanji visits Shirdi, the text states, "Seeing Maharaj, the heap of merit, love surged within him." Later, Ratanji directly addresses Baba in prayer, saying, "Maharaj, do not turn me away." The entire narrative context of this chapter revolves around Ratanji seeking blessings from Sai Baba for a son. There is no mention of Gajanan Maharaj in these specific passages, so the reference is clearly to Sai Baba.
The text mentions 'Maharaj' in chapter 14. Is this a reference to Gajanan Maharaj?
