How does Chapter 20 connect its main story to the events of the previous chapter?

📖 Chapter 20

Chapter 20 deliberately establishes a direct connection to the preceding chapter to ensure a continuous narrative. The text explicitly reminds the reader that "at the end of the previous chapter, it was told to the listeners that Baba explained the meaning of the Shruti (scripture) through a maidservant." The author then states that the story of Das Ganu is "the current connection of the story" which will now be elaborated upon. By doing this, Chapter 20 frames the tale of Das Ganu and his struggle with the Upanishad as the fulfillment of a promise made in the prior chapter, encouraging listeners to be attentive to see how that promise unfolds.
