What was Kakasaheb Dixit's emotional reaction when he first laid eyes on Sai Baba's portrait?

Kakasaheb Dixit's reaction to seeing Sai Baba's portrait was one of profound spiritual emotion and happiness. As recounted in Chapter 51, when Balasaheb uncovered the portrait, Dixit was "overwhelmed with joy" and looked at it with a prostration. The text states his eyes were "transfixed" by the sudden appearance of the beautiful and holy photograph. He felt extreme delight because the image of the very Guru whose darshan he longed for had appeared right before him on his way, which he perceived as a strange and miraculous occurrence orchestrated for his benefit.
