What does Chapter 32 reveal about the woman who planned to fast and the lesson Baba imparted to her?

πŸ“– Chapter 32

According to the overview in Chapter 32, a woman arrived with a strong desire to have Baba's darshan and observe a strict three-day fast. However, the chapter explains how this firm resolve was ultimately broken by Sai Baba's compassionate intervention. He ensured that she not only broke her fast but was made to eat puranpolis to her heart's content. The core teaching from this event, as highlighted in Chapter 32, is that true spiritual welfare lies in selfless service and wearing out the body for the sake of others, a principle she was made to understand so she would never forget it. This contrasts with the idea that solitary fasting is the highest virtue.
