Chapter 12 of the Sai Satcharitra draws a clear distinction between a saint and a traditional incarnation of God. While it states that God's incarnation is for protecting the virtuous and destroying the wicked, saints are described as uniquely distinct. The chapter explains that saints view the virtuous and the wicked as equal, and their minds do not differentiate between who is great or small. Their hearts are filled with such compassion that they first focus on setting the wicked on the right path. Because of this overflowing love for the distressed, Chapter 12 posits that saints are, in this respect, even greater than God.
