Why was the woman who dreamed of Baba so insistent on offering him khichdi, even when it meant breaking the rules at the mosque?

The woman's insistence stemmed from the deep conviction born from her initial vision and her resolved vow. Chapter 28 explains that the entire purpose of her long journey from Akola to Shirdi was driven by the "enthusiasm to offer khichdi." After waiting for fourteen days, the prolonged delay made her mind uneasy. Her eagerness was so profound that it couldn't remain unfulfilled. When she arrived to find Baba already eating behind the curtain, her inner urge and the sole purpose of her pilgrimage overrode the convention of not disturbing the meal. As the text states, she did not remain quiet but, "not heeding anyone," made her own entry by her own authority to fulfill her heartfelt desire.
