Why did Cholkar delay his trip to Shirdi after his wish was granted, and what does the text say about his struggle?

After Cholkar passed his examination by Baba's grace, there was a delay in fulfilling his vow to distribute sugar candy. Chapter 15 explains this was due to his financial situation. The text states, "mine is a poor household," and emphasizes his struggle by noting, "How could he go empty-handed?" The narrative uses a powerful metaphor, saying one might cross the vast cliffs of the Sahyadri mountains, but for a worldly man, the "'threshold-ghat' (home expenses) is very difficult to cross." This highlights that his delay was not from a lack of devotion but from the very real and pressing financial hardships that made the journey to Shirdi impossible for some time.
