Despite the spiritual benefits of being near Baba, Amir Shakkar eventually grew weary of his nine-month confinement in the Chavadi, which he started to see as a prison. As recounted in Chapter 22, a strong desire for freedom compelled him to act. He left his assigned place and traveled to Kopergaon, staying in a Dharmashala there, all without seeking Sai Baba's permission. The text immediately describes a strange event that occurred: Amir found a Fakir on the verge of death, begging for water. Moved by pity, Amir gave him a drink, and the very moment the Fakir drank the water, his body became lifeless.
