According to Chapter 40, how does Sai Baba interact with his devotees and what is the nature of their relationship?

Chapter 40 portrays Sai Baba's relationship with His devotees as deeply profound and transformative. It states that when a devotee seeks exclusive refuge, Sai dissolves the sense of duality, merging the "me" and "you" just as a river merges with the ocean. He is described as placing His hand on a devotee's head to perform shaktipat, or the transmission of spiritual energy, making the unattainable attainable. This chapter also highlights His motherly compassion, noting that like a mother to her infant, Sai comes running to His devotees wherever they may be, and though physically in Shirdi, He wanders through the three worlds.
