Who was Amani, and what was her interaction with Sai Baba as portrayed in Chapter 29?

πŸ“– Chapter 29

Chapter 29 introduces Amani as a three-year-old girl, identified in a footnote as the daughter of one of Sai's devotees named Kondaji. She would come to Baba after his morning meal while he sat near the dhuni in the masjid. The chapter describes her as a 'naked child' who would hold an open tin box and approach Baba, saying 'Baba, rupees, rupees!' while holding his hand. The text highlights that Baba had great affection for children and that Amani was sweet and pretty. He would respond by taking kisses from her, caressing her hair, and holding her close to his chest, though her mind remained focused on receiving rupees.
