What was Damu Anna's vow concerning the Ram Navami festival and what was the reason behind it?

Damu Anna's vow was a significant expression of his devotion, directly related to the annual Ram Navami festival in Shirdi. According to Chapter 25, Damu Anna, who had long been childless, was blessed with sons by Sai Baba. Overcome with gratitude, he made a vow to provide one of the two large new flags for the festival's procession each year. This became a regular tradition carried out with uninterrupted love and devotion. The other flag was supplied by the Nimonkars, and both were paraded through the village with musical instruments before being tied to the ends of the Masjid, symbolizing his enduring thankfulness for the blessing he received.
