After staying for nine months, why did Amir Shakkar leave the Chavadi, and what was the immediate consequence of his departure?

Chapter 22 recounts that after nine months, Amir grew tired of staying in one place, which began to feel like a prison. His mind desired freedom from this dependency, and without seeking Baba's permission, he left his assigned place. He went to Kopergaon and stayed in a Dharmashala. The immediate and miraculous consequence of this action was an encounter with a dying Fakir. When Amir gave the thirsty man a mouthful of water, the Fakir's body instantly became lifeless the moment he drank it.
