What happened when the Fakir who debated Devidas returned to Shirdi, and what lesson does Sai Baba's reaction teach us?

According to Chapter 5, after many years in Vaijapur, the Fakir who was defeated by Devidas returned to Shirdi. Upon his return, he bowed to Sainath, his delusion of being a Guru to Sai having been completely dispelled. He became pure through this repentance. Despite the past, Baba treated him with the same respect as before. This interaction illustrates a profound lesson that Sainath himself practiced: humility and the importance of the Guru-disciple relationship. Baba maintained the feeling that 'he is the Guru and I am the disciple,' demonstrating that one must be willing to become a disciple to achieve the supreme goal.
