What is the primary story recounted in Chapter 5 of the Sai Satcharitra regarding Devidas and a Fakir?

📖 Chapter 5

Chapter 5 of the Sai Satcharitra narrates the story of Devidas, a wise man who was in Shirdi before Sai Baba's second coming. As detailed in this chapter, a scriptural debate was held between Devidas and a Fakir. Devidas, with his wisdom and detachment, defeated the Fakir, who then fled to Vaijapur. Years later, the Fakir returned, his pride humbled, and bowed to Sainath. Baba, in turn, treated him with respect, dispelling the Fakir's delusion that he was the Guru. This entire account, according to the text, illustrates Baba's profound and instructive play.
