What was the minimal reading goal for the Dnyaneshwari that Balasaheb Deo failed to accomplish, and what did he decide to do as a result?

Balasaheb Deo's struggle with reading the Dnyaneshwari was so significant that even a very modest goal proved impossible for him to maintain. As Chapter 41 recounts, he resolved from his heart to read 'at least five verses [Ovis] daily.' However, he found that he could not accomplish even this minimal task with regularity and enthusiasm. Being distressed and unsuccessful, he made a major decision. He resolved to stop trying on his own and made a rule for himself: he would only read the Dnyaneshwari again if and when Sai Baba Himself gave him the direct order to do so, placing the entire matter at his Guru's feet.
