Why did it take a while for Cholkar to visit Shirdi, and what did he do when he finally arrived?

Cholkar's pilgrimage to Shirdi was delayed because he found the "threshold-ghat," a term for home expenses, very difficult to overcome, suggesting he faced financial constraints. Despite this delay, his resolve remained strong. According to the narrative in Chapter 15, when he finally saved enough and the time came, he journeyed to Shirdi. Upon his arrival, the first thing he did was have Sai Baba's darshan and prostrate at His feet, feeling supreme bliss. He then fulfilled the vow he had made by distributing sugar and offering a coconut with a pure heart, feeling that all his desires had been fulfilled.
