Chapter 12 of the Shri Sai Satcharitra describes saints, and specifically Sai Baba, as being uniquely distinct from the typical role of a divine incarnation. While a traditional incarnation is for protecting the virtuous and destroying the wicked, this chapter explains that saints view the virtuous and the wicked as equal. Sai Baba is presented as the embodiment of Truth, Consciousness, and Bliss, who has extreme affection for every living being while remaining detached from worldly things. He treats the pauper and the king as the same, possessing power yet remaining renounced. This chapter emphasizes that saints like Sai are compassionate and work to set even the wicked on the right path.
