What was the protocol for devotees in Shirdi when they needed to travel, and how does the story of Ramgir Buwa illustrate this?

๐Ÿ“– Chapter 33

In Shirdi, during the time Baba was in his bodily form, there was a deeply ingrained custom that devotees followed before embarking on any journey. As detailed in Chapter 33, no one would leave for any purpose, be it a wedding, a business trip, or any other function, without first seeking Baba's permission. It was a firm belief among all devotees that obtaining Baba's complete approval, along with his Udi-Prasad and blessings, was essential for any work to be completed without obstacles. The story of Ramgir Buwa perfectly illustrates this protocol. When he had an impulse to go to his village, he first went to the Masjid to bow at Baba's feet and formally ask for permission to leave, demonstrating the established custom and the devotees' unwavering faith in Baba's guidance.
