Chapter 35 describes visitors who were skeptical of Sai Baba. What was their specific criticism, and how did their perspective change?

In Chapter 35, the skeptical visitors held the belief that worshipping a God with form was an illusion and that saints were merely human. They questioned why they should bow or give monetary offerings (Dakshina) to someone like Sai Baba, believing that a saint's desire for wealth diminishes their saintliness. Their firm resolve was to visit Shirdi but not to bow or offer Dakshina. However, the chapter explains that this 'false logic' was no match for the power of Sai's presence. Upon having his Darshan, their pride dissolved, they forgot their previous intentions, and they completely surrendered at his feet, becoming devoted followers.
