What happened to a devotee named Karnik at the Kala Rama temple, and what was the significance of the event?

📖 Chapter 33

According to Chapter 33, when a devotee named Karnik went for Darshan at the temple of Kala Rama in Nashik, he had an unexpected encounter with the saint Narsing Maharaj. Amidst a circle of devotees, the Maharaj suddenly got up, held Karnik by the wrist, and demanded, "Give my Rupee." Karnik, feeling amazed, gave the Rupee with great joy because it felt as if Sai Baba himself was accepting the offering. The significance, as the chapter explains, is that this was a forceful taking, not a gentle request, highlighting a divine interaction that bypasses the mind's usual hesitations and second thoughts.
