Chapter 38 recounts a significant story involving Dada Kelkar, a devout Brahmin described as being perfect in his conduct and thoughts. On Ekadashi, a fasting day, Baba specifically ordered Dada Kelkar to go to Korhala and fetch meat, even providing the money for it and insisting he go personally. This order was a profound test of faith. The underlying lesson, highlighted in Chapter 38, is that the ultimate offering, or Dakshina, to a Guru is not just wealth or grain but the complete and unwavering performance of the Guru's order, which is the true way to please the Guru.
Can you explain the incident where Baba asked a Brahmin devotee to get meat? What was the purpose of this test?
