Can you summarize the different ways Balasaheb Deo tried to read the Dnyaneshwari and explain why he kept failing?

📖 Chapter 41

Balasaheb Deo's attempts to read the Dnyaneshwari were persistent but unsuccessful. Chapter 41 details these efforts. First, he tried to make it a daily rule, just as one might with the Bhagavad Gita, but the resolution would always be interrupted. Next, he took a three-month leave from work, going to Shirdi and then his home in Ponda, but even then, he read other books while his main goal remained unfulfilled. His final attempt was to commit to reading a minimum of just five verses daily, but even that did not happen with regularity. The core reason for these failures, as the text notes, was that whenever he took the book in hand, doubts would arise in his heart, preventing him from feeling any love for the text and keeping the reading superficial.
