Balasaheb Deo's resolution was a direct consequence of his persistent failure to read the Dnyaneshwari. As Chapter 41 recounts, he had a strong desire but could not maintain a regular practice, unlike with other books. Even his attempt to read just five verses, or Ovis, daily did not happen with regularity or enthusiasm. Being distressed by this, he made a very specific rule for himself: he would not read the Dnyaneshwari until he received a direct order from Sai Baba. He firmly resolved to wait until "Sai Himself gives love And says 'Read,'" before he would start again, thereby surrendering his will completely to his Guru.
Can you detail the specific resolution Balasaheb Deo made regarding the Dnyaneshwari and the circumstances that led to it?
