What does the account of Kaka, Boss Dharamsee, and the grapes teach us about the proper attitude when approaching a Guru?

The narrative in Chapter 35 provides clear guidance on the attitude one should have when visiting a Guru like Sai Baba. It begins with the principle that it is not good to go 'empty-handed to the door of God, a priest, or a Guru,' which is why Kaka thoughtfully purchased grapes as an offering. Furthermore, the story contrasts Dharamsee's initial skepticism and judgment with the ideal of surrendering the ego. Dharamsee internally questioned Baba's sainthood because he was being given grapes he disliked. However, the true path to grace, as the chapter suggests, is 'Becoming egoless and rolling at his feet,' which allows one to 'enjoy the festival of happiness.' Dharamsee only experienced Baba's divine power after he surrendered his judgment and obeyed Baba's command to eat the grapes, leading to his transformation.
