Could you explain the story of the woman who intended to fast, as described in Chapter 32?

📖 Chapter 32

Chapter 32 introduces a compelling incident about a woman who visited Sai Baba with the firm intention of observing a three-day fast. However, her plan was altered by Baba's divine play. According to the details provided in Chapter 32, Baba not only broke her resolve to fast but also had her prepare puranpolis and then eat them to her heart's content. Through this act, Baba imparted a valuable lesson: selfless service and working for others is a blessed act and a form of supreme welfare. This story illustrates Baba's method of teaching practical spirituality over rigid, self-imposed austerities.
