What were some of the events that occurred in Shirdi when the Madrasi sannyasi arrived, as described in Chapter 31?

📖 Chapter 31

Chapter 31 recounts several key events upon the arrival of the Madrasi sannyasi, Vijayananda, in Shirdi. After hearing of Baba's fame, he stopped there on his way to Mansarovar. In Shirdi, he met Swami Somdevji from Haridwar and became disheartened after the Swami described the perilous journey ahead. Subsequently, Vijayananda took darshan of Sai Baba, which made his mind very pleased. However, the situation took a strange turn when Baba's disposition changed, and He ordered the assembly to send the sannyasi away, saying, 'there is no companionship for work.' This left the sannyasi, who was new to Baba's ways, feeling distressed.
