When Ratanji was suffering from his inability to have a son, what guidance did he receive and from whom?

When Ratanji was constantly sad and uneasy over his lack of a son, he confided in Das Ganu, in whom he had great faith. As recounted in Chapter 14, Das Ganu provided clear and direct guidance. He advised Ratanji, 'Go to Shirdi; you will obtain your heart's desire.' Ganu instructed him to seek Baba's darshan, bow at His feet, and explain his problem from beginning to end, assuring him that Baba would offer words of blessing. Das Ganu emphasized Baba's 'inconceivable handiwork' and urged Ratanji to surrender to Him alone to be fulfilled. Ratanji found this idea appealing and resolved to make the journey.
