How did Balasaheb Deo's approach to reading the Dnyaneshwari evolve in response to his difficulties?

๐Ÿ“– Chapter 41

Balasaheb Deo's approach underwent a significant transformation from self-directed effort to complete surrender. Initially, as described in Chapter 41, he tried to establish a daily reading practice through his own willpower, but he was consistently thwarted. After becoming distressed by his repeated failures, he abandoned personal effort as the primary driver. His approach evolved into one of profound faith, where he made a new rule for himself: he would only begin reading the Dnyaneshwari again when Sai Baba Himself gave the order. He sat with the firm resolve that he would wait for Sai to give him the love and the explicit instruction to 'Read,' thus placing the success of his spiritual practice entirely in his Guru's hands.
