What specific spiritual practice did Sai Baba undertake in the two weeks immediately preceding His Mahasamadhi?

In the period just before His passing, Sai Baba undertook a specific and focused spiritual observance. As detailed in Chapter 44, knowing His end was near, Baba arranged to listen to the Ramayana. For fourteen continuous days and nights, He listened with focused contemplation as a Brahmin recited the epic. This dedicated listening session concluded exactly on the day of Vijayadashami, which was the day Baba chose to attain the state of bodilessness and leave His physical form. This act underscores the deep importance He placed on sacred stories and devotional listening.
