How did Babasaheb Tarkhad react when he realized he had forgotten to offer the daily Naivedya to Sai Baba?

Upon realizing his failure, Babasaheb Tarkhad was overcome with profound remorse and grief. Chapter 9 vividly details his reaction: sitting at his dining plate, he became filled with sorrow, and with tearful eyes, he bowed to Sai's image. He did not see it as a minor oversight but as a "great sin," feeling shameless and having reached a state of great repentance. In his distress, he prostrated at the feet of the photograph, choked with grief, and pleaded for mercy and forgiveness. Feeling helpless, he immediately sent a letter to his son, who was in Shirdi, explaining the "great error" and asking him to beg for Sai's forgiveness on his behalf.
