How did a conversation in Shirdi highlight Balasaheb Deo's ongoing issue with reading the Dnyaneshwari?

Balasaheb Deo's long-standing difficulty with the Dnyaneshwari was brought into focus during a visit to Shirdi. According to Chapter 41, Deo had traveled to Shirdi on an auspicious occasion with his mother and sisters. While there, he was directly asked by another devotee named Jog, "Why aren't you reading Dnyaneshwari daily these days?" This question prompted Deo to explain his situation. The text shows that this interaction served as a moment of confession, where Deo had to articulate the struggle he had been facing privately: that despite his great desire to read the Dnyaneshwari, his efforts did not reach fulfillment. This conversation underscores the public and private nature of his spiritual challenge, even among fellow devotees in the presence of their Guru.
