Chapter 6 of the Sai Satcharitra explains the Sadguru's role in guiding a devotee towards the profound experience of non-duality, or Advaita. The chapter describes how the Guru's grace works on a deep, transformative level. It is stated that the Sadguru awakens the sense of 'Soham' ('I am He') within the devotee, which is a core principle of Advaitic realization. This awakening is not merely intellectual but is a direct experience of innate bliss. As Chapter 6 details, by revealing this inner truth, the Guru simultaneously dissolves the devotee's sense of 'me and mine'—the very foundation of the ego and the feeling of separation. This process, initiated by the Guru's power and presence, culminates in the manifestation of the harmony of non-duality, where the distinction between the self and the divine collapses.
