Why was Dixit's accident in England considered a blessing in disguise?

Dixit's accident in England, where his foot slipped and caused lameness, was paradoxically seen as a great blessing. Chapter 4 describes this event not as bad luck, but as a "Guru-Pushyamrit" yoga, an auspicious alignment. The reason for this perspective is that the injury was the primary cause that led him to seek out Sai Baba. It was through this event that he met Chandorkar, heard of Sai's fame, and ultimately attained the rare and transformative 'Darshan' of Sai. Without this seeming misfortune, his path to his Guru might not have unfolded in the same way, making the accident a pivotal and positive turning point in his spiritual life.
