Analyze the internal conflict Amir Shakkar experienced during his stay in the Chavadi.

Amir Shakkar's experience highlights a profound conflict between external suffering and internal faith, as well as spiritual devotion versus the human desire for freedom. Chapter 22 portrays how, externally, the stay was like an imprisonment in a dilapidated, damp, and uncomfortable place that aggravated his rheumatism. However, internally, his certain faith allowed him to accept Baba's word as medicine and enjoy the "firm companionship with Sai." Yet, after nine months, this internal resolve wavered. The text notes, "The mind desires freedom; why would it like dependency?" The feeling of being in a prison became overwhelming, leading him to leave without permission, demonstrating the powerful human yearning for autonomy even in the midst of a great spiritual blessing.
