What was Sai Baba's prescribed remedy for Amir Shakkar's rheumatism?

When Amir Shakkar narrated his illness of rheumatism to Sai Baba and prayed for relief, Baba's remedy was a command rather than a conventional medicine. As Chapter 22 explains, Baba instructed Amir to stay steadily in the Chavadi. Despite the place being dilapidated and uncomfortable, Amir was told to accept Baba's word as the ultimate medicine. He was to reside there for nine months, even being forbidden from visiting the Masjid for Baba's vision, demonstrating that the cure was rooted in obedience and faith in Sai's instruction.
