Who was the young girl named Amani mentioned in Chapter 29, and what was her interaction with Sai Baba like?

📖 Chapter 29

According to Chapter 29, Amani was a sweet and pretty three-year-old girl, identified in a footnote as the daughter of a devotee named Kondaji. Her daily interaction with Sai Baba was a charming display of childlike innocence and Baba's immense affection. After Baba's morning meal, Amani would approach him while he sat by the dhuni. She would sit on her haunches, present an open tin box, and persistently say "Baba, rupees, rupees!" while holding his hand. Chapter 29 describes how Baba had great affection for her, responding by taking kisses, caressing her hair, and holding her close to his chest, even as the child's mind was focused on receiving money.
