Can you explain the connection between following Baba's advice about eating and the outcome of a devotee's journey?

As detailed in Chapter 9, there is a direct correlation between obeying Sai Baba's instructions, often about eating, and the successful outcome of a devotee's endeavors, especially travel. The author's personal story is a key example: when he ignored Baba's advice to eat first and travel later, his journey was disrupted by a broken cart wheel and a missed train. Conversely, the text explicitly states that those 'who honored the order, caught the train even at odd hours' and found their travel became pleasant. This demonstrates that Baba's guidance about sustenance was intertwined with ensuring a devotee's overall welfare and a smooth, protected journey, making obedience a critical factor.
