What were the 'two paise' that Baba's Guru asked for, and what did they symbolize in the Guru-disciple relationship?

Baba explains that when he first met his Guru, he was asked for two paise. As detailed in Chapter 19, this was not a request for worldly money, as his Guru was one whose desires were fulfilled and had no use for gold. These two paise were purely symbolic, representing the two most crucial qualities a disciple must offer: Faith (Nishtha) and Patience (Saburi). By giving these two 'coins' to his Guru, Baba pleased his Guru-Mother. This interaction illustrates that what a true Guru desires from a disciple is not material wealth but the essential spiritual virtues of unwavering faith and steadfast patience, which are the foundation of the relationship.
