What was life like for Baba before he began staying permanently in the mosque?

Before making the mosque his permanent residence, Chapter 5 mentions that Baba lived for a long time at the Takia, which is described as a resting place for Fakirs. During his time there, he remained largely undisturbed. The text provides a vivid image of his activities, noting that he would tie bells to his feet and, to the rhythm of a small tambourine (khanjiri), he would dance beautifully. In addition to dancing, he would also sing sweetly with love. This period at the Takia contrasts with his later, more stationary life in the small mosque, where he eventually attracted a large community of devotees.
