Upon realizing his mistake at mealtime, Babasaheb Tarkhad was immediately filled with profound remorse. Chapter 9 provides a detailed account of how he sought to make amends. His reaction was not passive; he immediately bowed to Sai's image and, with tearful eyes, questioned how Baba's Maya had made him forget. He confessed his error, calling it not just a mistake but a "great sin," and begged for quick forgiveness. In his helplessness, he prostrated at the feet of the photograph, his heart choked with grief. Furthermore, he took the tangible step of sending a letter to his son in Shirdi, confessing his "great error" and imploring his son to ask for forgiveness directly from Sai Baba on his behalf, pleading for mercy and protection.
