What is the primary lesson or story introduced in Chapter 47 of the Shri Sai Satcharitra?

Chapter 47 of the Shri Sai Satcharitra primarily serves as a prologue to a forthcoming story designed to impart a significant moral lesson.

The text prepares the reader by explaining that Sai Baba's merciful glance is the direct inspiration for this particular story. It also connects to the previous chapter's account of the goats, suggesting that just as Baba's love for them was rooted in past life memories, this new story will reveal profound truths about the law of Karma, which is described as being incredibly deep and difficult for most to comprehend.
