I heard Sai Baba gave away a lot of money. Was he consistent with his charity, and did everyone who asked receive something?

While Sai Baba was known for his incredible generosity, Chapter 29 clarifies that his practice of distributing money was not consistent or predictable. The text states that although he was of a 'generous disposition,' his giving was not a fixed rule, noting, 'he did not give to everyone - no one knew his mind.' It further explains that receiving money from his hand was a special blessing reserved for the fortunate whose 'auspicious time had arrived.' This indicates that his charity was an expression of his inscrutable will and grace, rather than a response to every request made to him.
