The story from Chapter 15 recounts that a man named Cholkar from a poor household was facing a critical examination. His job and daily bread depended on passing it. In his desperation, he made a vow to Sai Baba, promising that if he passed by Baba's grace, he would visit Shirdi and distribute sugar candy (khadisakhar) in His name. This was a firm resolve for Cholkar because, as the text states, his entire livelihood was at stake. After his wish was granted and he passed the exam, he faced another hurdle: the poverty that delayed him from immediately fulfilling his promise to travel to Shirdi.
Can you tell me about the vow Cholkar made to Sai Baba and why it was so important for him?
