What is the main story narrated in Chapter 5 of the Sai Satcharitra?

๐Ÿ“– Chapter 5

Chapter 5 of the Sai Satcharitra primarily recounts a significant story involving Sai Baba, a learned individual named Devidas, and an unnamed Fakir. According to the text, Devidas, who was considered a Guru by many in Shirdi, engaged in a scriptural debate with the Fakir and defeated him. The Fakir fled but returned years later, his delusion of superiority dispelled, and bowed to Sainath. Throughout this, Baba maintained a humble stance, treating the Fakir with respect and considering himself a disciple, teaching a profound lesson on humility. As Chapter 5 explains, Mahalsapati, a great devotee, is the one who made this story of the Guru and disciple known.
