The text mentions two stories about devotees and money. What is the underlying principle demonstrated by the story of Appasaheb and the Fakir?

📖 Chapter 33

The story of Appasaheb and the Fakir, found in Chapter 33, illustrates a profound principle about Sai Baba. When the Fakir took Appasaheb's ten-rupee note and returned the nine individual rupees he had been given, it wasn't a simple monetary exchange. The text explicitly states that the essence of this story is to show that Sai Baba ensures the complete fulfillment of whatever words a devotee utters. Appasaheb had offered to give more, and this unusual transaction was Sai's way of honoring that commitment, thereby demonstrating Sai's true principle of upholding his devotee's words.
