What made the Thursday of the Chavadi procession particularly memorable for Balaram and the other devotees?

The Thursday described in Chapter 51 was exceptionally memorable due to what the text calls a 'double joy'. Firstly, it was the day Balaram Mankar was personally blessed with a miraculous cure for his chronic asthma of six years, simply by taking a puff from Baba's chillim. Secondly, this personal miracle coincided with the grand, communal celebration of the Chavadi procession. The Dhurandhar group, including a newly-healed Balaram, was therefore able to participate in the joyous procession with its music, bhajans, and magnificent sights, making the day an unforgettable fusion of divine grace and festive devotion.
