What happened to a devotee named Karnik at the Kala Rama temple, and what was the spiritual lesson from his experience?

At the temple of Kala Rama in Nashik, a devotee named Karnik had an unexpected encounter with the saint Narsing Maharaj. As described in Chapter 33, the Maharaj suddenly got up, held Karnik by the wrist, and demanded, "Give my Rupee." Karnik, amazed, gave the Rupee with great joy, feeling as if Sai Baba himself was accepting the offering. The spiritual lesson drawn from this event is about the nature of the mind, which is full of resolves and counter-resolves. The text advises that one's initial good inclination should be nurtured and maintained, as it is ultimately the most beneficial path to follow.
