Yes, Chapter 36 details a very specific financial interaction. When two gentlemen from Goa came for darshan, Sai Baba asked for Dakshina of exactly fifteen rupees from just one of them. That person joyfully gave the amount. The second gentleman, though not asked, offered thirty-five rupees on his own. Sai Baba immediately rejected this unsolicited offering. The text notes that this apparent partiality caused great surprise among everyone present. This was so unusual that Madhavrao, also known as Shama, who was there at the time, felt compelled to ask Sai for an explanation of his actions.
