Chapter 29 suggests that receiving money from Sai Baba was not a random act but a matter of spiritual timing and fortune. The text explains that although many fakirs, beggars, and alms-seekers came to his door, Baba, though merciful, "did not give to all alike." The underlying principle was that a person's "auspicious time" had to arrive for them to receive this "blessing of happiness." The chapter emphasizes that the touch of a saint's hand was a "shell of fortune" obtained only by the fortunate, implying that his charity was a form of divine grace bestowed upon individuals when they were destined to receive it.
