Can you recount the story from Chapter 23 about the practitioner of Yoga who came to Sai Baba with doubts?

📖 Chapter 23

Chapter 23 narrates the tale of a practitioner of Yoga (Yogabhyasi) who, despite being well-versed in the Yoga Shastras of Patanjali, could not achieve Samadhi. Hoping Sai Baba, the "King of Yogis," could help him, he came for darshan. However, his faith wavered when he saw Baba eating stale bread (bhakar) with onions, making him doubt how such a person could resolve his spiritual issues. As detailed in this chapter, the omniscient Sai Baba immediately addressed the Yogi's unspoken doubt by remarking that only those with strong digestion should eat onions. This startled the Yogi, who then surrendered with true devotion, had his doubts cleared, and left happily after receiving Udi and blessings.
