How did the dispute over the land sale proceeds demonstrate the dangers of attachment, and what was Baba's role in mediating it?

The dispute vividly demonstrated the dangers of attachment to wealth. According to Chapter 47, as soon as the land was sold for a hundred thousand rupees, Chenbasappa Gurav became attached to the idea of receiving half the interest, stating he would not be satisfied otherwise. Veerabhadrappa, equally attached, refused to give anything. This mutual greed led to a heated argument. Baba’s role as a mediator was to inject divine perspective, reminding them that the land belonged to Shankara and Gauri was the heir. He advised them to act with her consent for a positive outcome, warning that acting against her would displease God and that Veerabhadrappa had no right to act independently.
