Can you compare Balasaheb Deo's ability to read other texts versus his attempts to read the Dnyaneshwari?

The text in Chapter 41 draws a sharp contrast between Balasaheb Deo's experience with the Dnyaneshwari and his other reading habits. He was perfectly capable of maintaining a regular reading schedule for other books, and the text specifically mentions that he followed a rule of reading one chapter of the Bhagavad Gita daily. Even when he took a three-month leave from work, he read other regular books. However, his strong intent to read the Dnyaneshwari was always thwarted. When he would take that particular book in hand, doubts would arise, the reading remained superficial, and he could not cultivate love for it, a problem that did not affect his other spiritual practices.
