The grape incident, detailed in Chapter 35, highlights how Sai Baba provides unique experiences tailored to each individual's needs. While Baba distributed grapes from the same bunch to everyone, the outcome varied. For Boss Dharamsee, a skeptic who disliked grapes with seeds, Baba miraculously made them seedless, causing him to be "greatly surprised." This personal miracle was designed to break his "clinical scrutiny" and ignite his faith. In contrast, when Dharamsee later asked another devotee, Babasaheb Tarkhad, about his grapes, Tarkhad confirmed that his still had seeds. This contrast made Dharamsee "extremely surprised in his heart," reinforcing the personal and profound nature of his own experience and showing that Baba's grace is not a one-size-fits-all phenomenon.
How was the experience of Boss Dharamsee different from that of other devotees present during the grape incident in Shirdi?
