Can you recount the story of Mrs. Gokhale and her intention to fast in Shirdi?

Certainly. A woman named Mrs. Gokhale came to Shirdi with a letter from Kelkar, filled with joy for Sai Baba's darshan. As Chapter 32 recounts, she had made a firm resolution in her mind to fast for three days while sitting at Baba's feet. This plan was directly contrary to Baba's own daily routine and teachings, which prioritized eating before spiritual contemplation. Sainath, being the inner witness who knows everything in everyone's heart, was already aware of her intention. He had even made a prophetic statement to Dada Kelkar earlier, asking, "How can I let my children remain hungry?" When Mrs. Gokhale arrived and sat for darshan, Baba immediately gave her an instruction, demonstrating that he knew her plan and that the path of fasting did not work with him.
