As a wealthy person, how might Sai Baba have tested my humility through the practice of Dakshina?

📖 Chapter 14

The teachings in Chapter 14 provide a clear example of how Sai Baba would have engaged with a wealthy devotee to instill humility. He would not just ask for a small amount; He might ask for hundreds or thousands, pushing you to give more and even suggesting you take a loan. More profoundly, even if you were a great millionaire, Maharaj might command you to go to a poor person's house to beg for Dakshina for Him. The text explicitly states that the essence of this act was to teach devotees to "choose humility." By taking this command and becoming humble in heart, you would learn that Sai did not see one as less or more, effectively dismantling the ego attached to wealth.
