Chapter 31 recounts that the sannyasi Vijayananda had a natural meeting with Swami Somdevji of Haridwar in Shirdi. When Vijayananda asked about the journey to Mansarovar, the Swami described it as a difficult path, 500 miles away, with heavy snow and changing languages that cause much hardship for outsiders. Hearing this news made the sannyasi dejected and worried. Later, when he took darshan of Sai Baba, Baba's disposition was disturbed, and He told the assembly to send the sannyasi away, stating there was "no companionship for work."
