Damu Anna played a significant and long-standing role in the annual Ram Navami festival. As detailed in Chapter 25, two large new flags are taken out in a grand procession through Shirdi village during the festival. One of these flags belonged to the Nimonkars, and the second one was provided by Damu Anna. This was a regular vow he undertook for many years, carrying it out with uninterrupted love and devotion. The text mentions that the procession, accompanied by musical instruments, would start from the house of Kondaji Sutara, and the banners would ultimately be tied to the two ends of the Masjid.
