According to Chapter 35, some people harbored skepticism about Sai Baba's practice of accepting Dakshina. They held the view that "When saints begin to accumulate wealth, their saintliness is diminished" and that one should not bow or give monetary offerings to such a person. With this firm resolve, they planned to visit Shirdi merely to meet Sai but without showing reverence or offering Dakshina. However, the chapter narrates that upon the "union of Darshan," their preconceived notions and pride vanished. They forgot their previous resolve and, like one surrendering completely, bowed at Sai Baba's feet, remaining devoted to him thereafter.
