Feeling distressed by his repeated failures to read the Dnyaneshwari, Balasaheb Deo made a firm resolution. According to Chapter 41, he decided to wait for a direct command from Sai Baba Himself. He vowed, "Only when Sai gives the order, Then only will I read the Dnyaneshwari." He believed that Baba knew his inner heart and would eventually fulfill his wish with a clear instruction. When he was in Shirdi, a man named Jog asked him about his reading. After Deo explained his vow, Jog suggested a trick: place the book in Sai Baba's hands, and when Baba returned it, consider it a divine order. However, Deo rejected this, expressing his complete faith that Baba would give him a direct and unambiguous command without any need for such contrivances.
How did Balasaheb Deo decide to resolve his inability to read the Dnyaneshwari, and what advice did he receive in Shirdi?
