How did Dr. Pillay articulate his existential crisis to Sai Baba, and how does it relate to the concept of Prarabdha?

Dr. Pillay's existential crisis, conveyed to Sai Baba through a messenger in Chapter 34, was a poignant cry of a righteous person in agony. He questioned the very justice of his situation, asking, "While living a pure life, why this state of suffering? Not going the way of evil deeds, why is this sin on my head?" This demonstrates his struggle to reconcile his virtuous life with his intense physical suffering. However, he himself provides the answer by referencing Prarabdha, acknowledging, "There is no escape without suffering...the fruits of past actions (Prarabdha) never fail." His crisis was not a denial of karma, but a plea for respite from its immediate, unbearable consequences, even proposing to defer the debt over ten future lives.
