How did Shama react when Baba took money from one person but not their friend?

Madhavrao, also known as Shama, was present during the incident with the two gentlemen from Goa and was greatly perplexed by Baba's actions. As detailed in Chapter 36, he saw Baba ask for and receive fifteen rupees from one visitor while simultaneously rejecting a larger, voluntary offering of thirty-five rupees from the other. Witnessing this apparent partiality, Shama directly confronted Baba about it. He asked, "Baba, why do you do this?" and questioned why a saint would show such favoritism, expressing his own confusion by saying he wouldn't act that way in Baba's position. Shama's candid questioning prompted Baba to provide the deeper explanation about karmic debts and his own detachment from wealth.
