Das Ganu undertook the task of translating the Ishavasya Upanishad into simple Prakrit, a project he titled 'Ishavasya-Bhavartha-Bodhini'. As detailed in Chapter 20, while he completed a word-for-word translation, he felt no joy because he couldn't comprehend the 'internal secret' or its deep, hidden meaning. This created a persistent doubt that even learned scholars could not resolve. Seeking a solution, he went to Shirdi for Sai Baba's darshan. After Ganu explained his predicament, Baba did not give a direct answer. Instead, he mysteriously stated, 'The resolution of this doubt of yours will be done by the maidservant at Kaka’s house When you return there,' demonstrating that a Guru's grace can provide answers in the most unexpected ways.
