What does the Chavadi procession reveal about Sai Baba's relationships and his style of leadership?

The description of the Chavadi procession in Chapter 37 offers deep insight into Sai Baba's leadership, which was rooted in mutual love and interdependence. For instance, even when ready, Baba would wait for Tatya Patil to arrive. It was only when Tatya, who affectionately called Baba 'Mama', put his hand under Baba's arm that Baba would rise to leave. This demonstrates a leadership that is not commanding, but collaborative and patient. Furthermore, Baba was flanked by Tatyaba and Mhalasapati holding His hands, with Bapusaheb Jog holding an umbrella, showing a leader who is supported by and moves in concert with his closest devotees, rather than one who walks far ahead of them.
