According to the narrative in Chapter 33, there was a firm and established custom among devotees in Shirdi. Before embarking on any journey or undertaking any purpose, be it a wedding, a sacred thread ceremony, or any business, they would first seek Sai Baba's approval. It was their unshakeable belief that proceeding without his complete permission, Udi-Prasad, and blessings would lead to obstacles. Therefore, devotees like Ramgir Buwa would always come to the Masjid to touch Baba's feet and ask for permission, ensuring their work would be completed successfully and without any hindrances.
