What was Baba's primary intention behind accepting Dakshina from his devotees?

πŸ“– Chapter 14

According to the teachings described in Chapter 14, Baba's primary intention in accepting Dakshina was for the spiritual benefit and purification of his devotees. The text explains that through the act of giving, their hearts would become pure. This practice is presented as a technique for those seeking self-knowledge, regardless of whether their goal is worldly gain or spiritual liberation. Baba, referred to as an 'ocean of mercy,' would stretch out his hand for Dakshina specifically to pull the greed-oriented person up from the pit of greed. Thus, the act was not for his own gain but was a method planned for the devotee's own benefit and self-progress.
