How did Sai Baba ensure Haribhau Karnik's intended offering was received, even after he had already left Shirdi?

The story of Haribhau Karnik beautifully illustrates Sai Baba's omniscience and how he honors a devotee's pure intentions. As detailed in Chapter 33, Karnik, a devotee from Dahanu village, visited Shirdi for Guru Purnima. After completing his worship and receiving permission to depart, a fleeting thought entered his mind to go back and offer one more Rupee to Baba. He dismissed this thought and continued his journey to Nashik. However, at the temple of Kala Rama, he had an unexpected encounter with the saint Narsing Maharaj, who suddenly held Karnik's wrist and said, "Give my Rupee." Karnik was astonished and joyfully gave the Rupee, feeling as though Sai Baba himself was accepting the offering he had earlier hesitated to give. This event shows that Baba knew Karnik's innermost thoughts and orchestrated events to fulfill his initial, heartfelt impulse.
