What were Sai Baba's living conditions and daily routine like in his early days at Shirdi?

In his early days in the village, Maharaj led a very simple and ascetic life. Chapter 0 explains that he resided in a Masjid that was in a dilapidated state. This Masjid served as his home, where he would stay at night. During the daytime, he would wander around the area. He depended on the kindness of others for food, as the text notes, 'If someone took him for a meal, he would go.' His days were also filled with service, as he would dispense medicine and personally care for the sick, all without accepting any payment for his help.
