The Udi's power to multiply food during the Shraddha ceremony must have involved a complex ritual. Can you detail the precise, step-by-step procedure the mother-in-law followed?

The account in Chapter 35 suggests the miracle was a result of profound faith rather than a complex ritual. The procedure followed by Balaji Patil's mother-in-law was remarkably simple. Faced with a potential food shortage, she took a handful of Udi, put it into each pot of prepared food, and then covered the pots. She gave a simple instruction to her daughter-in-law: 'You go and serve happily; remove the cloth only enough to serve; Pull the cloth back as before.' Her firm belief that the food was from 'Sai's house' and He would protect their honor was the key element. The text emphasizes that the outcome was a direct result of her mental resolve, stating, 'Whatever the feeling in one's mind, so is the experience,' demonstrating that the power was in her faith, not an intricate set of actions.
