Can you recount the story of the Yoga practitioner from Chapter 23 and explain why he initially had doubts about Sai Baba?

๐Ÿ“– Chapter 23

Chapter 23 narrates the story of a practitioner of Yoga (Yogabhyasi) who, despite being well-versed in the Yoga Shastras, was unable to achieve Samadhi. He sought Sai Baba's darshan, hoping the 'King of Yogis' could help him. However, a strong misgiving arose in his mind when he saw Baba eating bread (bhakar) with onions. As the chapter recounts, seeing this simple, worldly act of consuming stale bread and a dry onion made him think, "How can this man remove my doubts?" His doubt stemmed from a superficial judgment based on Baba's diet, which contradicted his preconceived notions of a great spiritual master.
