Can you describe the interaction between Sai Baba and Hemadpant regarding the story from Shama?

📖 Chapter 19

The interaction detailed in Chapter 19 is one of intimate spiritual exchange. It begins with Sai Baba interrupting the Aarti's proceedings to pointedly ask Hemadpant and Shama about their recent conversation. Despite the loud Aarti, Baba leaned forward from his bolster, encouraging Hemadpant to also move closer and narrate the story. After Hemadpant finished, Baba didn't just acknowledge it; he enthusiastically asked, 'How sweet was this story you heard? Did it strike your heart?' He then used the moment as a teaching opportunity, advising Hemadpant to hold the lesson in his heart and to pursue meditation on the Self, demonstrating how he turned a simple story into a profound spiritual lesson.
