Describe the scene when the two gentlemen from Goa arrived in Shirdi, focusing on who was there and what caused the surprise.

๐Ÿ“– Chapter 36

Chapter 36 paints a clear picture of the arrival of two gentlemen from Goa seeking Sai Baba's darshan. Upon arriving, both men surrendered at Baba's feet. The scene, which was witnessed by Madhavrao (Shama) among others, quickly became perplexing. Sai Baba asked for fifteen rupees from one man but pointedly rejected a thirty-five-rupee offering from the other. As the text from Chapter 36 notes, this action caused everyone present to be "greatly surprised." This visible partiality was so striking that it compelled Shama to directly ask Sai for an explanation of his behavior.
