The chapter
The writer, Virendra Jyotindra Tarkhad, introduces his own memories after recounting his father’s experiences. Sai devotion was part of family life through the Thursday evening Aarati at home.
He describes visiting Shirdi for the first time at eighteen and later attending many Guru Purnima festivals. During one festival he was selected to read chapter nine of Sai Satcharitra in Dwarkamai and received a coconut and Sai photograph as prasad.
