What specific advice did Sai Baba give regarding feeding the hungry, and how did he illustrate this point?

๐Ÿ“– Chapter 9

In a powerful lesson recorded in Chapter 9, Sai Baba gave very direct advice about charity, telling a devotee, "give bread to the hungry first. Afterward, eat for your own stomach; keep this well in your heart." He illustrated this by explaining that he had personally experienced the satisfaction of her act of charity. When she had fed a hungry dog, Baba told her, "Consuming that bread of love, I became completely satisfied. I am still getting belches." He further clarified his oneness with the animal, reinforcing the idea that serving any hungry being is a direct service to him.
