The leela of the grapes, narrated in Chapter 35, is a profound teaching on faith, surrender, and Baba's omniscience. Boss Dharamsee, a skeptical visitor, internally questioned Baba's sainthood when offered grapes with seeds, which he disliked. Baba, knowing the 'intent of his mind,' first tested his obedience and then rewarded it. When Dharamsee finally ate the grapes upon Baba's command, he found they were seedless. This miracle demonstrated Baba's ability to know one's innermost thoughts, his power to alter the nature of things, and the principle that what is given by a Sadguru is always beneficial. As Chapter 35 recounts, this event caused Dharamsee's ego to drop away and replaced his skepticism with a deep love for Sai, turning a curious visitor into a firm devotee.
