What were Maharaj's living arrangements and nightly routines when he first arrived?

Upon his arrival, Maharaj mostly resided in a Masjid that was in a dilapidated state. While he would go to people's homes for meals if invited, his nights were spent in specific locations. Chapter 0 details a particular routine where he would sleep one night in the Masjid and the next night in the Chavadi. On the nights he stayed in the Masjid, his close devotee Mhalasapati would remain with him until dawn. This arrangement highlights Maharaj's ascetic lifestyle and the simple, humble conditions in which he lived while building deep connections with his followers.
