Beyond teaching humility, what deeper spiritual transaction did Sai Baba suggest was occurring through the act of giving Dakshina?

The act of giving Dakshina to Sai Baba involved a profound spiritual economy that went far beyond a simple lesson in humility. Chapter 14 reveals Baba's own words on this exchange: "I lack only the one who loves Me as his very life; if he gives Me one quality, I give him a hundred qualities in return." This statement implies that the devotee's offering, whether material or a quality like love, was a catalyst for a hundredfold spiritual return from Baba. He would also promise to give them "bags of rupees," suggesting that both material and spiritual needs would be met. The transaction was thus a mechanism for the devotee to surrender something of lesser value to receive immeasurable grace in return.
