Balasaheb Deo faced a persistent and frustrating spiritual obstacle concerning his desire to read the Dnyaneshwari. As detailed in Chapter 41, despite having a great desire and making a resolution to read it daily, some impediment would always arise, preventing him from maintaining the practice. This was in contrast to other books, which he could read regularly. Even a reduced resolution to read just five verses daily failed. In his distress, Deo made a firm new resolve: he would completely stop trying on his own and would only begin reading the Dnyaneshwari when Sai Baba Himself gave a direct order and instilled the love for it in his heart.
What was the specific spiritual obstacle that Balasaheb Deo kept running into, and what was his ultimate decision to overcome it?
