Sai Baba demonstrated his profound omniscience, or ability to know everything, in the incident with Mrs. Gokhale. As Chapter 32 recounts, before the woman even arrived in Shirdi with her secret resolve to fast for three days, Baba already knew her intention. He revealed this foresight to Dada Kelkar by making a predictive statement about not letting his children remain hungry during the Holi festival. The very next day, Mrs. Gokhale arrived, validating Baba's prediction. The text explicitly states, "The inner witness Maharaj already knew this from before," and "Sainath knows everything," confirming that this event was a clear display of his divine knowledge of the thoughts in everyone's heart.
How did Sai Baba's reaction to Mrs. Gokhale's fasting plan demonstrate his omniscience?
