How did Sai Baba's generosity reflect his divine will, and was it predictable?

Sai Baba's generosity was a core part of his nature, yet it was completely unpredictable, reflecting a higher will that was not always understood. Chapter 29 explains that while he was compassionate and would distribute money abundantly, his manner was not fixed. He might give ten rupees to some and fifty to others, or send people away empty-handed. This chapter states, "nothing was ever fixed," and "no one knew his mind." It suggests that receiving a gift from Baba was a matter of one's "auspicious time" arriving, a blessing of happiness obtained only by the fortunate, rather than a predictable transaction.
