The text mentions Kunti's prayer for calamities. How does this relate to Amir Shakkar's experience in the Chavadi?

Chapter 22 begins by referencing the prayer of Kunti, who asked God for a 'constant series of sorrows' so she would never forget His name. This theme of finding divine connection through hardship provides a powerful framework for understanding Amir Shakkar's story. While Amir initially prayed for deliverance from the calamity of his rheumatism, Sai Baba's prescribed 'remedy' was to endure the immense discomfort of the dilapidated Chavadi. As Chapter 22 describes, this externally harsh experience, like an imprisonment, was internally a form of 'firm companionship with Sai.' It suggests that the suffering Amir endured in the Chavadi was his own calamity, which ultimately kept him physically and spiritually close to Baba.
