What did other revered saints like Gangagir Baba and Anandnath Maharaj say about Maharaj?

Several revered saints recognized Maharaj's exceptional spiritual stature. According to Chapter 0, when Gangagir Baba first saw Maharaj carrying water, he immediately told the villagers, "This is purely a gem. His worth is very great. The village is very lucky that you got this gem." Similarly, Anandnath Maharaj, a disciple of the famous Swami of Akkalkot, made a comparable remark upon arriving in Shirdi. He stated, "This is a diamond. You don't know its true value." These accounts show that other holy men held him in very high esteem.
