What underlying principle does Chapter 29 suggest about receiving blessings or charity from a saint like Sai Baba?

Chapter 29 delves into the profound principle that receiving blessings from a saint is not a simple transaction but a matter of divine will and auspicious timing. While Sai Baba was known for his incredible generosity, distributing money daily, the chapter stresses his unpredictable nature. It explains that his charity was not given to all alike; Fakirs, beggars, and devotees might all approach him, but only some would receive. The text poetically states, 'Whoever's auspicious time had arrived - only for them this blessing of happiness.' This implies that the 'touch of a saint's hand' is a form of grace bestowed upon the fortunate, not something that can be demanded or expected, a point which the chapter prepares to illustrate through a story.
