A known person from Jaipur once came to Darbar Sahib at Ajmer. He kept a basket of fruits at Sai’s feet and said, “Please make me your disciple.” Obviously Sai refused to do so, as Sai has always been very clear about the true concept of the relation between a Guru and a disciple. Sai never believes in increasing the numbers of devotees or disciples, He says that He would rather take good care of the existing ones.
Accordingly Sai told him, “I have been staying here since years, many people know me, many I am friendly with, but that friendship, that relation is restricted till the bank, or the shop, etc.”
Sai is too perfect and clear about the limits and privileges in every relationship!
