How did Babasaheb Tarkhad react to his mistake of forgetting the Naivedya, and what process did he follow to seek forgiveness?

Upon realizing at his dining plate that he had forgotten to offer the sugar candy Naivedya, Babasaheb Tarkhad was filled with immense remorse. Chapter 9 describes his profound emotional reaction; he did not see it as a simple mistake but as a 'great sin.' He immediately bowed to Sai's image with tearful eyes, expressing his deep repentance and shame. Feeling helpless and desperate for mercy, he took a further step by writing a letter to his son in Shirdi. In the letter, he confessed his 'great error' and implored his son to ask for Sai Baba's forgiveness on his behalf, pleading for compassion and protection.
