According to Chapter 43, what is the spiritual benefit of discussing the passing of a saint, even if the topic is inherently sorrowful?

📖 Chapter 43

While Chapter 43 acknowledges that the news of a body's end "does not please anyone’s heart," it presents a powerful spiritual justification for narrating these events. The text explicitly states that "the passing of saints and sages purifies both the listeners and the speakers." The author, Hemad, further argues that the remembrance and glorification of God's devotees is the most accessible and effective means for purifying the mind and washing away the "filth of accumulated sins." Therefore, recounting Sai's departure is not seen as a morbid act but as a sacred one that offers purification and spiritual upliftment to all who engage with the story.
