When Madhavrao returned and told Baba about Mirikar's dismissive comment, Baba's reaction was calm and instructive, not offended. According to Chapter 22, He replied, 'That’s fine. What of ours is lost?' This demonstrates His detachment and understanding. He then used this moment to impart wisdom, explaining that the benefit one receives from a Guru, God, or physician is directly proportional to the faith one has in them. He further elaborated that while one should offer good advice for another's well-being, the ultimate result is dictated by that person's own karma. This response highlights Baba's role as a teacher who guides but does not compel, allowing individuals' faith to determine their path.
