The account in Chapter 41 details some curious financial interactions between Sai Baba and Balasaheb Deo. On one occasion, when Deo went for darshan, he offered one rupee. Sai Baba, however, told him to bring twenty rupees instead, which Deo did. The very next day, upon visiting the mosque again, Deo was once more asked by Baba for twenty rupees. The text highlights that Deo gave this second sum with 'joy and satisfaction.' This episode illustrates the unique and often testing ways Baba would interact with his devotees, using seemingly mundane requests to gauge and strengthen their faith and surrender.
What were the specific monetary requests Sai Baba made to Balasaheb Deo during his visits to the mosque?
