He was so arrogant that no one could overpower him. The sticks and strictness of even the senior teachers in his school failed to control Gaavbaa. Not just arrogant; he was at the same time dumb too. After having studied for three-four years in school, he could not even learn the basic alphabets. He would always utter strange and scary voices like a bear. With saliva dripping from his mouth, the whole day he would keep hunting for tasty items to eat. On locating any, he would somehow rob and eat it. Such was Gaavbaa!
One day, unable to keep her patience anymore, Gaavbaa's mother gave up. Dragging Gaavbaa, she reached the hermitage of Saint Eknath. She pulled and slammed Gaavbaa in his feet. In an extremely pleading tone, she said, “O Master, only you can handle this useless child. Therefore, I am leaving him at your threshold. Whether you kill him or keep him alive, it's your wish. But from now, he is dead for me…” Weeping loudly, the mother left from there. Saint Eknath looked at Gaavbaa with sharp eyes and then smiled. It seemed as if in just one glance, he drew new lines on Gaavbaa's fortune panel. The disciple who was standing beside the Master asked with folded hands, “Maharaj, what to do with this child?”
“We have to groom him, what else?” said Saint Eknath, in a determined voice.
“What will be the first chapter for grooming him, Master?” asked the disciple.
“Make him eat a lot. Give him what he desires!” Saying this, Saint Eknath went to his room.
