Doesn't the fact that the Nevasakar family ran out of food and needed Udi to fix it suggest their faith was weak and their planning was poor?

On the contrary, the incident at the Nevasakar's Shraddha ceremony is presented as a powerful testament to their profound faith. According to chapter 35, the food shortage arose not from poor planning, but because the number of guests unexpectedly became triple the original estimate. While the daughter-in-law felt anxious about this unforeseen crisis, the mother-in-law's faith was described as "powerful and firm." She immediately declared, "Our Sai is powerful and firm; While he is there, why worry?" Her instant recourse was to place her trust in Baba by adding Udi to the pots. This act demonstrates immense faith under pressure, not a weakness. The miracle that followed, where everyone was fed and food remained, validated her unwavering belief and showed how a crisis could become an opportunity to witness Sai's grace, as chapter 35 vividly illustrates.
