Can you tell me about the woman who wanted to fast, as mentioned in Chapter 32?

📖 Chapter 32

Certainly. Chapter 32 of the Sai Satcharitra introduces the story of a woman who arrived with a strong desire to have Baba's darshan and stay for three days while observing a strict fast. However, the narrative explains that her firm resolve was ultimately broken. Sai Baba orchestrated events in such a way that she was not only made to break her fast but was specifically made to prepare and eat puranpolis to her heart's content. As Chapter 32 highlights, this was a profound lesson from Baba. The act demonstrated the principle that 'wearing out the body for others' sake' is a blessed act of true welfare, teaching the woman a lesson about fasting that she would never forget.
