What were Sai Baba's specific actions and rituals right before He left the Masjid for the Chavadi?

📖 Chapter 37

Before departing for the Chavadi, Sai Baba performed a consistent series of actions. As detailed in Chapter 37, after Tatya Patil helped Him up, Baba would go to a wall where firewood was kept and move His right big toe at that spot. Then, in a significant ritual, He would wave His right hand over the burning dhuni flame to extinguish it before setting out. He would also have His usual kafni on, His satka (short stick) tucked under His arm, and His tobacco and pipe. These personal rituals were an integral part of His departure for the Chavadi procession.
