The incident with the sugary tea is highly significant, as explained in Chapter 15. While waiting to fulfill his vow, Cholkar had personally given up sugar, even drinking his tea without it, as a form of penance for the delay. After he finally reached Shirdi and fulfilled his vow, Baba specifically told his host, Jog, to give Cholkar "cups of tea, well-filled with sugar." This instruction stunned Cholkar, as it was a clear sign that Baba was omniscient and knew about his secret, personal sacrifice. It was a powerful moment that confirmed Cholkar's faith and left him overcome with joyful tears.
