Chapter 19 details Sai Baba's profound teachings on the virtue of patience, or 'Saburi.' He describes patience as the 'manliness of men' and a form of courage that will carry a person through any heavy burden. He elaborates that patience has the power to ward off sin, distress, and poverty, while also averting calamities and pushing away fear. Baba elevates patience to a high status, calling it a 'mine of virtues' and the 'queen of the King of Good Thoughts.' He asserts that a person without patience, regardless of their knowledge or virtue, is in a pitiable state and their life is in vain. Ultimately, patience is presented as a fundamental strength for any spiritual aspirant.
