According to the Sai Satcharitra, what is the spiritual benefit of listening to Sai's stories?

As explained in Chapter 36 of the Shri Sai Satcharitra, listening to Sai's stories is a profound practice for achieving one's own spiritual welfare. The text beautifully describes these narratives not merely as stories, but as "the very water of self-bliss." It states that engaging with these tales removes the fatigue and misery of worldly existence, leading to a state of happiness. The chapter emphasizes that Sai Baba himself loves his stories and uses them as a pretext to fulfill the desires of his devotees, making both the listener and the speaker instruments of his grace. Therefore, listening respectfully is presented as a direct path to spiritual contentment and divine connection.
