The request for "two paise" is a symbolic teaching explained in Chapter 19. Baba clarifies that this was not a desire for worldly money, questioning how a Guru with all desires fulfilled could want such a thing. The two paise he was asked for were actually Faith (Nishtha) and Patience (Saburi). By giving these two virtues to his Guru, Baba fulfilled the true expectation of a disciple. This story serves to teach that the most valuable currency in the spiritual path is not material wealth but the internal qualities of unwavering faith in the Guru and the steadfast patience to walk the path prescribed.
