Who was the little girl Amani, and what was her relationship with Sai Baba as detailed in Chapter 29?

📖 Chapter 29

In Chapter 29, Amani is introduced as a sweet and pretty three-year-old girl, the daughter of a devotee named Kondaji. She had a unique and affectionate relationship with Sai Baba. After Baba's morning meal, she would approach him in the masjid, holding an open tin box and asking him for 'rupees, rupees!'. The chapter vividly describes Baba's great affection for children, noting how he would give Amani kisses, caress her hair, and hold her close to his chest. Despite Baba's loving embrace, the narrative points out that Amani's young mind was focused on receiving the rupees, illustrating a charming and innocent interaction between the saint and a child devotee.
