Why did Balasaheb Deo stop trying to read the Dnyaneshwari on his own, and what condition did he set for starting again?

Balasaheb Deo stopped his attempts to read the Dnyaneshwari because he faced continuous and insurmountable obstacles. As Chapter 41 recounts, despite his strong intention, something would always get in the way, or his mind would be filled with doubts, which kept the reading superficial and unenjoyable. He found that while other books could be read regularly, his resolution for the Dnyaneshwari would not last. After becoming distressed that he couldn't even read five verses a day, he surrendered his effort. He made a firm resolve, placing his faith at Sai's feet, that he would only commence reading the Dnyaneshwari when Sai Baba personally gave him the order and the love to do so.
