What was the process that led Anandnath Maharaj to travel to Shirdi, and how did he describe Sai Baba upon arrival?

Anandnath Maharaj's journey to Shirdi was spontaneous and divinely inspired. As Chapter 0 recounts, several devotees from Shirdi, including Madhavrao Balwant Deshpande, had gone to Savargaon for Anandnath Maharaj's darshan. As they were preparing to leave, Anandnath Maharaj suddenly ran and sat in their cart, declaring, "I am coming with you," despite attempts by others to stop him. Upon arriving in Shirdi and seeing Sai Baba, he immediately recognized his immense spiritual worth, telling the local people, "This is a diamond. You don't know its true value."
