Did Balasaheb Deo's three-month leave from work help him finally start his daily reading of the Dnyaneshwari?

No, Balasaheb Deo's three-month leave did not result in him starting his daily reading of the Dnyaneshwari. As recounted in Chapter 41, Deo took the leave and first went to Shirdi, and from there traveled to his home in Ponda to rest. Although he had the time and opportunity, he found himself occupied with other tasks and reading other regular books. The text explicitly states that during this period, his deep desire to read the Dnyaneshwari was not fulfilled, and its time did not come. This highlights that his obstacle was not a lack of time but a deeper spiritual or psychological block.
