Chapter 29 presents Sai Baba's charitable acts as unpredictable, stating "nothing was ever fixed." While he was an embodiment of compassion, he did not give to all who asked, which could appear arbitrary. The text reconciles this by introducing the concept of an "auspicious time." It posits that a person received Baba's blessing of happiness only when their specific, divinely ordained moment had arrived. As Chapter 29 explains, "Whoever's auspicious time had arrived - only for them this blessing of happiness." Therefore, Baba's actions were not random but were aligned with a deeper, karmic or destined timing that was beyond ordinary human comprehension.
The text mentions that 'no one knew his mind' regarding Baba's charity. How does the concept of an 'auspicious time' explain this seemingly arbitrary behavior?
