Chapter 29 states that Baba's charity was unpredictable. What is the deeper meaning or explanation given for why he gave to some but not all?

πŸ“– Chapter 29

Chapter 29 addresses the seemingly contradictory nature of Sai Baba's generosity. While he was known to distribute money abundantly on a daily basis, the text explicitly states that he did not give to all alike, including the fakirs and beggars who came to his door. The explanation provided in Chapter 29 is not based on the worthiness of the recipient in a worldly sense, but on a spiritual or destined timing. The verse says, "Whoever's auspicious time had arrived - only for them this blessing of happiness." This implies that receiving the "shell of fortune" from a saint's hand was a profound blessing reserved for the fortunate, whose time for such grace had come, reinforcing the idea that Baba's actions were part of an incomprehensible divine plan.
