The text mentions, 'As is the feeling, so is the fruit.' How does the story of Das Ganu's doubt illustrate this principle?

📖 Chapter 20

The principle 'As is the feeling, so is the fruit' is central to the story of Das Ganu's doubt in chapter 20. While the crowd and other observers reacted with disbelief, thinking Baba was joking about a maidservant solving a scriptural puzzle, Das Ganu's inner feeling was one of faith. Although he was initially surprised, his underlying belief in Baba's power was unshakable. He held onto the feeling that Baba's words were "Brahma-likhit" (divinely ordained) and would come true. This faith, or 'feeling,' is what positioned him to receive the 'fruit'—the resolution to his problem. His loving heart and pure realization, as mentioned in chapter 20, allowed him to see truth where others saw a jest, thus preparing him to recognize the solution when it appeared in the form of a young girl's song.
