What were the initial actions Ratanji took when he first met Sai Baba in the Masjid at Shirdi?

Upon arriving in Shirdi, Ratanji went to the Masjid for darshan. As described in Chapter 14, the moment he saw Sai Maharaj, a surge of love filled him. His first action was to prostrate at Sai's feet. He had brought a basket of flowers, from which he took a flower garland and, with love, placed it around Baba's neck. Following this, he offered a weight of fruits at Baba's feet. Only after making these initial offerings of reverence did he sit humbly near Baba to make his prayer and present the reason for his visit.
