The story of Cholkar, found in Chapter 15, illustrates Baba's omniscience. Cholkar was a poor man whose job security depended on passing an examination. He made a vow to Baba that if he passed, he would distribute sugar candy (khadisakhar) in His name. After passing, financial difficulties, described as the difficult "threshold-ghat," delayed him from fulfilling the vow. As a personal penance, he gave up eating sugar entirely. When he finally made it to Shirdi and fulfilled his vow, Baba confirmed His awareness of the entire situation by asking a host to give Cholkar tea that was "well-filled with sugar," proving to Cholkar that his secret devotion and struggles were known to Baba all along.
Can you recount the story of Cholkar and the vow he made to Sai Baba?
