How did Sai Baba's requests for Dakshina vary, and what did he say to his devotees about it?

📖 Chapter 14

Sai Baba's requests for Dakshina were not uniform; they were tailored as he pleased. As described in Chapter 14, he would ask for amounts ranging from one or two rupees to hundreds, thousands, and even crores. He would often push devotees further, telling them to "Bring more" or even to "Take a loan" if their funds were exhausted. However, this demanding approach was balanced with profound reassurance. He would tell his devotees, "Do not worry even a little bit; I will give you bags of rupees; sit peacefully near Me." This indicates the practice was a test of faith and detachment, not a simple financial transaction.
