Sai Baba strongly discouraged his devotees from incurring debt, especially for activities like pilgrimages. As Chapter 28 recounts, Laxmichand had taken a loan to make his pilgrimage to Shirdi. The text explicitly states, "Taking loan for a pilgrimage - or going on pilgrimage with debt - Baba does not like indebtedness; this is the main teaching here." Although Baba still showered his grace upon Laxmichand by fulfilling his desire for khaja, this underlying principle serves as a key lesson from the narrative. This account from Chapter 28 highlights Baba's practical guidance on financial responsibility.
