Feeling distressed by his persistent failure to read the Dnyaneshwari, Balasaheb Deo made a firm resolution. According to Chapter 41, he decided he would only begin reading the sacred text when Sai Baba Himself gave a direct order to do so. He placed his faith entirely at Sai's feet, vowing to wait for a clear command before starting again. This demonstrates his immense faith and trust in Baba's omniscience. When his friend Jog later suggested a 'trick' to get a symbolic approval by placing the book in Baba's hands, Deo rejected it. He stated that Baba knew his inner heart and believed that Baba would fulfill his wish directly, without the need for any schemes, by clearly saying 'Read.'
How did Balasaheb Deo decide to resolve his inability to read the Dnyaneshwari, and what does this show about his faith in Sai Baba?
