What were the primary sacred books read in Shirdi as part of the daily Parayana, and what was their significance?

📖 Chapter 18

The daily readings, or Parayana, in Sathe's Wada centered on two main books that contain the essence of the Bhagavat religion. Chapter 18 identifies these as the Bhagavad Gita and the Bhagavat. Specifically, the texts read were 'Jnaneshwari,' which is also known as 'Bhavartha Deepika' and is a renowned commentary on the Gita by Saint Jnaneshwar, and the 'beautiful eleventh Skandha of the Bhagavat,' which is Saint Eknath's commentary. These works were considered Nath's platform for attaining the highest spiritual goal, and Baba placed great importance on having his devotees listen to them for their spiritual welfare.
