According to Chapter 47, what is the effect of hearing Sai's stories on a listener, and what is the ultimate goal?

Chapter 47 describes the profound and transformative effect of listening to Sai Baba's stories. It promises that upon hearing these supremely holy accounts, the bonds of Karma will be severed for both the wise and the ignorant. The text suggests that a truly attentive listener will forget their bodily consciousness and be overwhelmed by divine love. As explained in Chapter 47, the ultimate purpose for the listener is to focus on the inner meaning and moral of the stories. By doing so, and by grasping the distilled essence of Sai's words, the listener will achieve the fulfillment of their purpose, which is finding peace and liberation from the weariness of worldly life.
