Baba as a dog and sickly Sudra: Kasinath Govind Upasani Maharaj (KGU) who lived at Shirdi in 1911-14, prepared his food which a black dog was watching. Offering nothing to the dog, K.G.U. went to the masjid and offered it to Baba. Baba: Why did you bring it here. I was there.
K.G.U. : Baba, there was none there, except a black dog. Baba :
I was that black dog.
Baba refused to accept food that day. Next day K.G.U. prepared his meal at his quarters and found no dog there. But a sickly Sudra was standing leaning on a wall and looking at the food. The orthodox K.G.U. drove him away from that place and brought the food to S.Baba.
S. Baba : Yesterday you did not offer me food. Today also you drove me away. Why bring the food here?
K.G.U.: Where were you there, Baba?
S.B.: I was leaning on the wall.
K.G.U.: What ! could you be in such a person?
S.B.: Yes I am in all things and beyond.
Purusha Sukta
i.e. He pervades the earth and transcends it.

Every devotee tries to visualize How Baba looked like. They try to see how Dwarakamai, Chavadi looked like when Baba walked on the soil of Shirdi. Are we able to visit Baba back in his times when we visit Shirdi now?
