What was Sai Baba's teaching about going on pilgrimages, based on Das Ganu's experience with Prayag?

Sai Baba's teaching, as illustrated by Das Ganu's experience in Chapter 4, was that the physical presence of a true Saint can supersede the need for traditional pilgrimages. When Das Ganu wanted to travel to the holy site of Prayag for a sacred bath, Baba told him it was unnecessary, stating, "This itself is our Prayag; keep firm faith in your mind." To reinforce this, a miracle occurred: water representing the holy Ganga and Yamuna rivers began to flow from Baba's toes as Das Ganu bowed to him. This demonstrated that the sanctity and blessings of a pilgrimage could be found at the feet of the Guru, making long journeys redundant if one has true faith.
