I heard a story about a woman who wanted to fast in Shirdi. What happened to her?

๐Ÿ“– Chapter 32

Chapter 32 recounts the story of a woman named Mrs. Gokhale who arrived in Shirdi with a firm resolve to fast for three days at Sai Baba's feet. However, this intention was contrary to Baba's principles. As the "inner witness," Sainath was already aware of her plan before she even arrived. He had previously remarked to Dada Kelkar, "In this Shimga (Holi) festival, will my children remain hungry? How can I let them remain so?" This foreshadowed his response. When Mrs. Gokhale came for darshan, Baba, who knew everything in her heart, gave her an instruction that countered her resolve to fast, demonstrating his principle of not allowing his devotees to go hungry.
