What were the circumstances that led Amir Shakkar to leave the Chavadi, and what happened immediately after?

Despite the spiritual benefits, Amir Shakkar eventually grew tired of his long confinement in the Chavadi. Chapter 22 states that it began to feel like a prison, and a strong desire for freedom arose within him. Feeling he had had enough of this dependency, he made the decision to leave without seeking Sai Baba's permission, abandoning his assigned place. He traveled to Kopergaon and took shelter in a Dharmashala. There, he witnessed a miracle: he encountered a Fakir on the verge of death from thirst. Amir felt pity and gave him water, and the very moment the Fakir drank it, his body became lifeless.
