Based on the account in Chapter 18, when Sai Baba sends a message to Madhavrao (Shama) for Dakshina, there is no mention of a new temple being constructed. The narrative describes Madhavrao Deshpande coming to Shama with a message directly from Baba, stating, "Take fifteen rupees as Dakshina from Shama." Baba instructed the messenger to sit and talk with Shama for a while before returning. The conversation that follows is about Baba's divine play and fame. The entire exchange, as detailed in these passages from Chapter 18, is focused on the request for Dakshina and the subsequent surprise and dialogue between Madhavrao and Shama, with no reference to any temple construction.
