According to Sai Baba, what are the spiritual outcomes for a devotee who engages with His stories?

Engaging with Sai Baba's stories yields profound spiritual benefits. Chapter 2 explains that hearing, singing, and contemplating these narratives provides a "resting place for the soul." This practice is said to give birth to devotion and immediately destroy ignorance. Sai Baba promised that by listening with true feeling, faith will arise, leading to self-experience, self-bliss, and a state of happiness. Ultimately, the devotee gains knowledge of their true form, the soul and Shiva find harmony, and the unperceivable, formless Consciousness manifests, which is the entire goal of the Vedas.
