What was significant about December 10th in the context of Dixit's Wada and other events in Shirdi?

Chapter 4 highlights December 10th as a day of great significance for multiple reasons. On this day, Sai Baba gave specific and contrasting orders to two devotees: he instructed Kakasaheb Dixit to proceed with laying the foundation for the Wada, but told Shriyut Dadasaheb Khaparde, who had also arrived, to go home. Adding to the importance of this date, the text notes that the 'Shej-Aarti' (night prayer) in the Chavadi also began on this very day, commencing with great devotion and love.
