Chapter 35 details a profound methodology. Boss Dharamsee arrived with 'clinical scrutiny' and an ego that led him to judge a saint's actions, thinking, 'If he is a saint, how does he not know That I do not like these grapes?'. Baba did not engage him in debate but instead created a situation that directly challenged his perception of reality. By turning seeded grapes into seedless ones in Dharamsee's mouth, Baba bypassed his intellectual defenses. As Chapter 35 states, 'His state of mind was stunned; he forgot his clinical scrutiny; All his ego dropped away, and love for the saint was born.' This shows Baba's method is experiential, using miracles not as mere display but as a precise tool to dismantle the ego and open the heart to devotion.
Based on the story of Dharamsee, how does Baba's methodology for spiritual transformation engage with a person's ego and intellectual scrutiny?
