What happened when Damu Anna considered a business partnership, and how did Sai Baba respond to his unspoken thoughts?

When Damu Anna silently considered entering a business partnership and thought of offering Sai Baba a share, Baba demonstrated his omniscience. As Chapter 25 explains, the secret thoughts of every living being are known to Baba. He gave a manifest answer to the unvoiced plan, lovingly saying, "We are not in anything (partnerships), Bapu." This was a clear hint that the venture was not advisable. Upon hearing this, Damu Anna understood the sign, felt ashamed, and immediately abandoned the idea. This incident shows how Baba protects his devotees from future calamities by perceiving their intentions and guiding them away from harm, even before they act.
