Chapter 28 explains that a Sadguru fosters devotion by actively engaging with followers, even from a distance. Sai Baba creates love for his own feet by removing the many troubles of his devotees. This chapter highlights how he would appear in their dreams to give darshan, break their addictions to things like liquor, and guide them. This compassionate intervention, which includes removing the cycle of birth and death, is described as an "additional compassion" beyond what a physical father provides. The text states that Baba would go into the dreams of devotees, sometimes asking for khichdi or even beating their backs in the manner of a Guru to correct them, thereby strengthening their devotion and guiding them toward a purified life.
