How did Sai Baba use a simple cup of tea to prove his divine awareness to Cholkar?

Sai Baba's divine awareness was proven to Cholkar in a profoundly personal way, as described in Chapter 15. After Cholkar fulfilled his vow and was visiting with his host, Jog, Baba gave a very specific instruction: "Give him cups of tea, well-filled with sugar." This was remarkable because Baba did not drink tea himself, and more importantly, it directly referenced the very thing Cholkar had secretly given up during his long wait to visit Shirdi. For Cholkar, hearing these words was confirmation that Baba knew about his private penance, the reason for the vow, and the long delay. This simple act served as a powerful hint that his vow had been accepted and his devotion was seen.
