What prompted Amir Shakkar to finally leave the Chavadi, and what was the immediate consequence of his disobedience?

According to Chapter 22, Amir Shakkar left the Chavadi because he grew tired of the confinement after staying there for nine months. The text explains that his mind desired freedom and that the place 'felt like a prison to him.' A thought arose in his mind, 'Enough of this prison!', which prompted him to act. Crucially, he left without seeking or receiving Sai Baba's permission, abandoning his regular place. He went to Kopergaon and stayed in a Dharmashala. The immediate consequence described in the chapter is that he encountered a dying Fakir who was desperate for water. As soon as Amir gave him a drink, the Fakir's body became lifeless, creating a new crisis for Amir.
