Did everyone who came to Sai Baba receive money or gifts from him?

No, Sai Baba's charity was not predictable, and he did not give to everyone who approached him. Chapter 29 of the Shri Sai Satcharita explains that while his distribution of money was a true and regular occurrence, his manner was not fixed. It is mentioned that "he did not give to everyone - no one knew his mind." Sometimes he would give a sweet, and other times he would send people back empty-handed. The text suggests that receiving a blessing from his hand was a matter of fortune, granted only when a person's "auspicious time had arrived," making the act of receiving a gift from him a special grace.
