What happened to the Yoga practitioner who visited Sai Baba with Nanasaheb Chandorkar in Chapter 23?

📖 Chapter 23

Chapter 23 narrates the story of a practitioner of Yoga who came for Sai Baba's darshan with Nanasaheb Chandorkar. This Yogi had studied the Yoga Shastras but was unable to achieve Samadhi and hoped Baba could help. However, when he saw Baba eating stale bread with onions, a strong doubt arose in his mind about Baba's spiritual stature. As Chapter 23 explains, Sai Baba, being omniscient, perceived this doubt and remarked, "Nana, only those whose digestion is strong should eat onion." This statement startled the Yogi, who realized his inner thoughts were known. He then surrendered with true devotion, his doubts were resolved, and he returned with a happy mind after receiving Udi and a blessing.
