How did Amir Shakkar's faith manifest during his prescribed stay in the Chavadi for his rheumatism?

Amir Shakkar's faith was profoundly tested and proven during his stay. Despite the miserable and contrary conditions of the Chavadi—damp, cold, and filled with holes—he chose to obey Sai Baba's command. Chapter 22 highlights this by stating that while his rheumatism was fixed in his body and all external conditions were adverse, "internally there was certain faith; because of that, everything went well." He accepted Baba's word as his only medicine and, as the text mentions, ultimately "stayed there happily" for the ordained nine months, demonstrating complete surrender and trust in Sai's unconventional wisdom.
