During a visit to 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, while a circle of devotees was gathered, Maharaj suddenly stood up, grabbed Karnik by the wrist, and demanded, "Give my Rupee." Although Karnik was initially amazed, he gave the Rupee with great joy, feeling as if Sai Baba himself was forcefully accepting the offering. The text emphasizes that this was not a gentle acceptance but a forceful taking, illustrating how a devotee's offering can be claimed.
