According to the book, what is the purpose of studying Sai Baba's life story and deeds?

Chapter 17 explains that the purpose of studying the life story of Sai is multifaceted and deeply transformative. It is described as a 'boat' that will help one 'cross the ocean of existence.' By listening to these stories with great respect, it is said that the poverty of both the listener and the speaker is destroyed, and their bad days vanish. Seeing Baba's extraordinary deeds is meant to amaze and humble individuals, leading them to his lotus feet. Ultimately, these stories are presented as a 'free gift' of happiness that, when heard with a broad mind, helps people find the path to their own salvation.
