What were the specific roles of Tatya, Mhalasapati, and Bapusaheb Jog during the Chavadi procession?

📖 Chapter 37

During the procession to the Chavadi, several key devotees had specific, honored roles. Chapter 37 explains that Tatyaba, who shared a deep, loving bond with Baba, would hold His left hand. Mhalasapati would hold Baba's right hand. Bapusaheb Jog's role was to hold an umbrella over Sai Baba's head as they walked. In addition to these three, the text also mentions two chowrie-bearers who would fan Baba, a mace-bearer walking in front shouting Sai's name, and heralds who would call out with love as the procession moved along. These roles highlight the organized and devotional nature of the event.
