What specific miraculous events occurred during Chand Patil's first meeting with Sai Baba that revealed the Fakir's divine nature?

📖 Chapter 5

Chapter 5 of the Shri Sai Satcharitra details two key miracles that convinced Chand Patil he had met a saint, or 'Avaliya'. First, after hearing that Patil's mare had been lost for two months, the Fakir simply told him to search near some streams, where the horse was found immediately. This display of clairvoyance stunned Patil. The second wonder occurred shortly after. The Fakir, needing to light his chillum, thrust a pair of tongs (chimta) into the earth and pulled out a glowing ember, demonstrating his command over the elements. These acts made Patil realize he was not in the presence of a mere human.
