What is the significance of the two flags at the Ram Navami festival mentioned in connection with Damu Anna?

๐Ÿ“– Chapter 25

The flags symbolize a long-standing tradition of devotion and a fulfilled vow. According to Chapter 25, two large new flags were taken out in a procession every year for the Ram Navami festival in Shirdi. One of these flags was provided by Damu Anna, and the other by the Nimonkars. The text emphasizes that this was their 'regular vows for many years, carried out with uninterrupted love and devotion.' The procession, accompanied by musical instruments, would begin at the house of Kondaji Sutara and conclude with the flags being tied to the two ends of the Masjid. This tradition highlights Damu Anna's prominent and consistent role in the religious life of Shirdi.
