After the narrator recounted the story he heard from Shama, what spiritual instruction did Sai Baba impart?

Upon hearing the story, which pleased him, Sai Baba gave profound spiritual guidance as noted in Chapter 19. He instructed the narrator to keep the story's essence in his heart. Baba then explained that attaining true knowledge of the Soul requires meditation (Dhyana), which he defined as the practice of the Self that brings peace to the mind. He advised that one should become free from all desires and meditate on the divine being who resides in all creatures. By doing so, meditation becomes orderly, and the ultimate goal will be attained.
