The author recounts a personal experience in Chapter 18 that highlights Baba's priorities. The author was in the middle of reading a story from the Bhagavat but set the book aside to rush to the Masjid, eager to hear Baba's own stories. However, Baba's mind was focused on the incomplete reading. The text states that in Baba's mind, "there was no satisfaction other than the Bhagavat, which had been left in distress." For this reason, Baba insisted that the author return and finish reading the remaining part of the text. This marvelous event shows that Baba held the completion of the sacred reading in the highest regard, prioritizing it even over his own storytelling at that moment.
