How to see Khandoba at Jejuri? It is not Khandoba who engages him, but the old woman and doubt questioning his faith. What is this all for?

The poet an atheist sees the things with a discerning eye and is caustic as well. The old woman as it is found in temple complex is like that one in Vrindavan, Puri and Benares.

It is a Khandoba series of poems written in Marathi, but translated into English commemorating the journey to the temple in a sardonic--satiric way of presentation.

For anyone looking for an explanation or summary. This poem is about a stubborn, manipulative, clingy, persistent old woman that has gone through something tragic. She just wants some money. Not 100% correct but that's what I comprehend.
