Chapter 35 illustrates profound devotion through selfless service. Balaji Patil Nevasakar, a great devotee, would express his love for Baba by sweeping the paths Baba walked daily. This was his dedicated daily task. After him, Radhakrishnabai, a Brahmin woman, continued this humble service. The text highlights that despite being from a high caste, she would wake up early and sweep the paths herself, showing that no service was too menial for a true devotee. Balaji's devotion was also shown through his complete self-sacrifice, as he would offer his entire harvest to Baba at the mosque and live only on whatever portion Baba gave him back.
