Chapter 28 of the Shri Sai Satcharitra clearly outlines Sai Baba's teaching against indebtedness. The narrative introduces Laxmichand, who had taken a loan to fund his pilgrimage to Shirdi. The text explicitly states this as a teaching moment, saying, 'Taking loan for a pilgrimage - or going on pilgrimage with debt - Baba does not like indebtedness; this is the main teaching here.' This demonstrates Baba's practical wisdom, emphasizing that even pious acts should not be performed by putting oneself into financial bondage, highlighting a principle of responsible living.
