Based on the story of Ratanji and the practice of Dakshina, how did Sai Baba view people of different economic statuses?

📖 Chapter 14

Sai Baba demonstrated a clear indifference to a person's wealth, treating everyone with equality. Chapter 14 states, "Whether a great wealthy person or a beggar, poor, weak, or destitute—Sai did not know one as less or one as more." His interaction with Ratanji, where he immediately asks for Dakshina, and his practice of commanding millionaires to beg from the poor, underscore this principle. The focus was never on the material offering itself but on the devotee's heart, humility, and willingness to surrender their ego.
