Why did Baba ask Dada Kelkar, a devout Brahmin, to fetch meat on the Ekadashi fasting day?

The incident involving Dada Kelkar, a devout and respected Brahmin, is presented as a profound lesson in Guru-disciple relationship. Chapter 38 recounts that Baba specifically ordered Kelkar to personally go and get meat on Ekadashi, a fasting day, even providing the money for it. This unusual and seemingly contradictory order was a test of faith and obedience. Dada Kelkar, who was perfect in his conduct and had boundless love for Sai, was faced with a novel command. The text suggests that this was Baba's way of demonstrating a deeper spiritual principle: that the true 'Dakshina' or offering is not just wealth or items, but the complete performance of the Guru's order, which pleases the Guru and signifies the disciple's surrender and firm intellect at the Guru's feet.
