Can you explain the miracle of the grapes involving Boss Dharamsee? What was the significance of this event?

๐Ÿ“– Chapter 35

The miracle of the grapes is a well-known story from Chapter 35 that illustrates Baba's omniscience and power to transform not just objects, but people's hearts. Boss Dharamsee, a visitor with a skeptical attitude, was offered grapes with seeds by Baba. He disliked this variety and was hesitant to eat them. As his internal struggle and doubt grew, Baba gave him even more. Finally, Baba commanded him, "Throw them in and eat." When Dharamsee obeyed, he was astonished to find the grapes were completely seedless. The significance of this event, as Chapter 35 reveals, was multi-fold. It was a direct response to Dharamsee's unspoken thoughts, proving Baba's omniscience. It shattered his "clinical scrutiny" and ego, leading him to exclaim, "What a strange power! What is impossible for these saints?" Most importantly, it transformed his skepticism into deep devotion, making him a firm devotee.
