I heard Sai Baba's Guru asked him for two paise. Was he really asking for money? What was the deeper meaning of this request?

According to Chapter 19, Sai Baba explained that his Guru, a great saint whose desires were already fulfilled, did not ask for worldly money. The two paise he requested were a metaphor for two essential qualities: Faith (Nishtha) and Patience (Saburi). Baba stated that he gave these to his Guru then and there, which pleased his 'Guru-Mother.' He emphasized that these two virtues are like 'two sisters, dear as life to each other.' This story illustrates that what a true Guru desires from a disciple is not material wealth, but profound spiritual qualities like unwavering faith and enduring patience.
