Who was the little girl Amani, and what was her unique interaction with Sai Baba as described in Chapter 29?

๐Ÿ“– Chapter 29

In Chapter 29, a story is introduced to illustrate the nature of receiving Baba's grace, and it features a little girl named Amani. She is described as a naked, sweet, and pretty child of three years, who is the daughter of one of Baba's devotees named Kondaji. Her unique interaction with Baba would occur after his morning meals. As narrated in the chapter, Amani would approach Baba with her mother, sit on her haunches, and boldly place an open tin box in his hands, saying "Baba, rupees, rupees!" The text highlights Baba's great affection for her; he would respond by taking kisses, caressing her hair, and holding her to his chest, even as the girl's mind was focused on getting rupees from him.
