Chapter 20 explicitly establishes a narrative link to the preceding chapter to ensure continuity for the reader. The text reminds listeners that 'at the end of the previous chapter, it was told to the listeners that Baba explained the meaning of the Shruti (scripture) through a maidservant.' This serves as a direct setup for the main story of Chapter 20, which details how Das Ganu, struggling with the meaning of the Ishavasya Upanishad, is told by Baba that his doubt will be resolved by a maidservant. This technique connects the two chapters and builds anticipation for the unfolding story.
What is the connection between the story of Das Ganu in Chapter 20 and the end of the previous chapter?
