Baba mentions his Guru asked for two paise. What was the real meaning of this, and what does it teach us about the Guru-disciple bond?

In Chapter 19, Baba recounts that his Guru asked him for two paise, but he clarifies this was not a request for money, as his Guru was one whose desires were fulfilled. The true meaning of the two paise was 'Nishtha' (Faith) and 'Saburi' (Patience). By giving these to his Guru, Baba pleased him. This story illustrates that the Guru-disciple relationship is not based on material transactions but on the disciple's internal qualities and readiness. The Guru seeks the disciple's unwavering faith and the courage of patience, which Baba describes as the 'manliness of men' that wards off sin and distress.
