How did Babasaheb Tarkhad react when he realized he forgot to offer Naivedya to Sai?

When Babasaheb Tarkhad realized he had forgotten the Naivedya, his reaction was one of profound remorse and repentance. Chapter 9 details that at the dining plate, he was filled with regret and, with tearful eyes, bowed to Sai's image. He questioned how Sai could have let him forget and begged for forgiveness, viewing his lapse not as a simple mistake but as a "great sin." His heart was choked with grief, and feeling utterly helpless, he prostrated before the photograph and immediately sent a letter to his son in Shirdi, imploring him to ask Sai for mercy and protection on his behalf.
