Chapter 44 of the Sai Satcharitra provides a detailed and chronological account of Sai Baba's final days. It explains that, knowing his end was near, Baba listened to a Brahmin recite the Ramayana for two full weeks. As this period concluded, the day of Vijayadashami arrived, and Baba passed away. The chapter recounts the immediate aftermath, where for twenty-six hours, both Hindu and Muslim devotees deliberated on how to handle the final rites and the location for his Samadhi. This period was marked by confusion, as a previous incident where Baba had seemingly left his body for three days caused doubt about whether this was truly death or another deep trance.
