How do the stories of Karnik and Appasaheb Kulkarni illustrate different aspects of giving offerings to Baba?

Chapter 33 presents two contrasting experiences with giving Dakshina. Karnik's story shows an immediate, forceful collection of an offering where he felt Sai himself was acting through Narsing Maharaj. This reflects the fulfillment of a spontaneous good inclination. In contrast, Appasaheb Kulkarni's story deals with a forgotten promise. He had vowed to give ten Rupees but hesitated when Baba, disguised as a Fakir, came to collect. This narrative highlights the human tendency to waver and the Guru's persistence in helping a devotee clear their spiritual debts. Together, they show that whether an offering is taken by force or requested as a reminder, Sai ensures the devotee's good intentions are realized.
