Can you explain the story of the merchant Hansraj and what it reveals about Sai Baba's financial principles?

The story of the merchant Hansraj, found in Chapter 36, powerfully illustrates Sai Baba's principles regarding wealth. A kind merchant named Hansraj, seeing the poverty of the devoted Mhalasapati, wanted to help him financially. In the Masjid, while both Mhalasapati and Sai were present, the merchant pushed money toward the devotee. However, Mhalasapati, being very humble and loyal to Sai's teachings, returned it, declaring, "Without Sai’s permission, I cannot accept it." Sai himself reinforced this by stating that he does not let his devotees be deluded by money or caught in its glory. This incident reveals that Sai prioritized a devotee's spiritual detachment and renunciation over their material comfort, even when help was offered with good intentions.
