Can you tell me about the author's personal story in Chapter 21 where he missed the chance to meet a saint?

In Chapter 21 of the Sai Satcharitra, the narrator shares a personal experience from when he was a Magistrate in the city of Bandra. A famous Siddha named Pir Maulana resided there, and his servant, Inus, constantly urged the narrator to come for his vision. However, due to pride and what he later calls "ill-luck," the narrator resisted, thinking, "Why should I go? Should I be pressured by others and lose my own prestige?" He never went to see the saint and was eventually transferred. He presents this story as a prime example of how one's own misfortune can prevent an encounter with a great soul, even when they are physically close, emphasizing that good fortune is necessary to attain the company of Saints.
