Chapter 9 details an incident involving the families of Tatyasaheb Noolkar and Bhausaheb Dixit. When they were set to leave Shirdi, Sai Baba instructed them, "Go tomorrow morning and eat at Kopargaon before leaving!" Although they sent a message ahead, their meal was not ready when they arrived in Kopargaon. Rushing to catch their train, they went to the station without eating. There, they discovered the train was delayed by an hour and a half. This forced them to send a tonga back to the village for their food, ultimately fulfilling Baba's command. As recounted in Chapter 9, this story powerfully illustrates that Baba's instructions, no matter how trivial they seem, are for the devotee's welfare and will be fulfilled one way or another.
