Bapusaheb Jog, also known as Sakharam Hari Jog, played a crucial role in the daily spiritual activities in Shirdi under Sai Baba's direction. As described in Chapter 18, Baba assigned him the important task of daily reading sacred scriptures like the Jnaneshwari and Nath Bhagawat in Sathe's Wada. Jog would perform this duty with great discipline. Every day after his afternoon meal, he would first go to Baba, bow at his feet, and take Udi and permission to begin the reading (Parayana). Baba, in turn, would actively support this by sending many of the devotees who came to see him at the Masjid over to the Wada to listen to Jog's reading and explanations, thereby making the Wada a center for scriptural learning and devotion.
