How did Sai Baba treat people of different social or financial statuses who came to see him?

Sai Baba treated everyone with absolute equality, completely disregarding their social or financial standing. Chapter 14 emphasizes this point, stating, "Whether a great wealthy person or a beggar, poor, weak, or destitute—Sai did not know one as less or one as more." His practice of asking for Dakshina was applied to all, whether they were Hindu, Muslim, or Parsi. In fact, he would often challenge the status quo by commanding a "great millionaire" to go to a poor person's house to beg for Dakshina on His behalf. This act served to instill humility and demonstrate that in his eyes, all souls were equal and deserving of the same spiritual lessons.
