The sources mention that one should not go empty-handed to a Guru. How does this principle play out in the story of Dharamsee's visit, and what does it teach us about approaching Sai?

The principle of not approaching a Guru empty-handed is a sign of respect. In the narrative from Chapter 35, this is demonstrated when Kaka, on his way to see Baba, buys grapes with seeds to offer. These very grapes become the medium for Baba's leela with the skeptical Boss Dharamsee. Although Dharamsee himself did not bring the offering, he was a recipient of it. His initial reluctance and internal judgment about the offering Baba gave him were part of the test. The miracle that followed—the seeded grapes becoming seedless—shattered his ego and established deep faith, showing that the offering creates an opportunity for the Guru to bestow grace.
