How did Sai Baba's demeanor change during the wheat grinding incident, and what does it reveal about him?

Sai Baba's demeanor shifted several times during the grinding incident, revealing his multifaceted nature. As recounted in Chapter 1, he began the task with quiet determination. When the women took over the grinding, his initial feigned anger quickly subsided into love and a smile as he observed their devotion. However, his mood changed again when he saw their greed. As the women prepared to divide the flour for themselves, Baba's anger was real. He sternly rebuked them, asking if they thought they were taking their father's property. This event illustrates that Baba could be both loving and firm; he appreciated devotion but would not tolerate greed, and his actions were driven by a higher, protective purpose that was not always immediately apparent.
