According to the text, how should one understand the concept of physical illness or death for a perfected being like Sai Baba?

The text presents a view where physical ailments and death are irrelevant to a perfected being like Sai Baba. Chapter 43 describes the body as 'merely an adjunct' and states that for such saints, there is no real mental or physical illness. Even if afflictions arise due to past karma, the saint has 'no awareness of them.' Death itself is reframed as a 'state of happiness for the body,' and the idea of death for a saint is likened to an eclipse, which is merely a 'defect of vision' for the observer. For Sai Samarth, who is the 'complete Supreme Brahman' and devoid of bodily impulses, the world and body consciousness are an illusion, making him entirely untouched by these physical phenomena.
