Chapter 35 explicitly states, 'It is not good to go empty-handed to the door of God, a priest, or a Guru.' This principle was demonstrated by the devotee Kaka, who was accompanying Dharamsee to see Baba. In adherence to this etiquette, Kaka bought two seers of grapes on the way to Shirdi to present as an offering. Although the seedless variety he preferred was not available, he purchased the ones with seeds that were for sale. This act of bringing an offering set the stage for the subsequent miracle that transformed Dharamsee's skepticism.
