Sai Baba responds to a devotee's innermost thoughts with profound insight and compassion, often using their own doubts as a means for their spiritual upliftment. The story of Boss Dharamsee in Chapter 35 is a perfect example. Dharamsee harbored an unspoken dislike for the seeded grapes Baba offered. The text explicitly notes that as this attitude of dislike arose within him, 'Baba gave him even more of them.' This shows Baba was not only aware of the thought but was directly addressing the spiritual obstacle it represented. The eventual miracle of the grapes turning seedless led Dharamsee to exclaim, 'Knowing the intent of my mind... Whatever Sai gives me, they turn out to be seedless and beneficial.' This demonstrates that Baba interacts directly with our consciousness, perceiving our hidden feelings and turning moments of internal resistance into powerful lessons of faith.
