How did Sai Baba demonstrate his generosity, and was there a consistent pattern to his giving as described in Chapter 29?

📖 Chapter 29

Chapter 29 of the Sai Satcharitra portrays Sai Baba as a profoundly generous saint who was compassionate to pilgrims and the needy. He would frequently distribute money, sometimes giving ten rupees to some and fifty to others. However, the chapter makes it very clear that there was no consistent pattern to his charity. It is stated that this was Baba's constant manner—nothing was ever fixed. While he was merciful, he did not give to all alike. The text suggests that receiving a gift was a matter of fortune, explaining that only when a person's "auspicious time had arrived" would they receive such a blessing from his hand.
