Could you recount the story of Tatya Kote's interaction with Baba at the mosque as detailed in Chapter 9?

📖 Chapter 9

Chapter 9 narrates a brief but illustrative incident involving Tatya Kote. Tatya was on his way to Kopargaon in his tonga for the weekly market day. He stopped at the mosque to take Sai Baba's darshan and, as a pretext, to seek permission to leave. The text notes that Tatya was impatient to go. However, Sai Baba, who always knows the right and wrong time for any action, perceived Tatya’s haste. Instead of giving immediate permission, Baba told him, "Wait a little." This story, found in Chapter 9, serves as a practical example of the principle that devotees should not act on their own impatient impulses but must trust and adhere to Baba's timing.
