Daji Awasthi was a skeptic until he met a rare saint in Pune in 1897. The saint proved to Daji that God existed and there were many divine entities in the world. After that, Daji started chanting the mantra “Namah Shivaya” continuously, regardless of what he was doing, with unwavering devotion. He continued his devoted chanting even though he had yet to experience divine intervention. It wasn't until 1913 when Daji reached Shirdi and felt blessed to be in the presence of Lord Saibaba that he knew he would leave Shirdi a transformed person.
