Can you recount the incident involving the two gentlemen from Goa that is introduced in Chapter 36?

Certainly. Chapter 36 of the Shri Sai Satcharitra introduces a curious incident involving two gentlemen who traveled from Goa to have Sai Baba's darshan. Upon their arrival, both men surrendered at Baba's feet. However, a strange interaction followed. Sai Baba specifically asked for Dakshina of fifteen rupees from only one of the men, who gave the amount with joy. When the second gentleman, acting on his own accord, tried to offer a larger sum of thirty-five rupees, Sai Baba immediately rejected the offering. As the chapter notes, this apparent partiality was surprising to all who were present and prompted Madhavrao (Shama) to ask Baba for an explanation.
