Analyze the metaphors used in Chapter 47 to convey the power of Sai Baba and his stories.

πŸ“– Chapter 47

Chapter 47 employs rich metaphorical language to illustrate the divine stature of Sai Baba and the transformative power of his stories. It likens his grace to a "sun" before which the "firefly of worldly existence" fades. A powerful metaphor mentioned in Chapter 47 is that of the River Ganges, which, despite purifying the world, seeks the dust from the feet of saints for its own purification. The experience of hearing Sai's stories is compared to sitting under the shade of a "Kalpataru (wish-fulfilling tree)," where desires are instantly fulfilled. Furthermore, one who has Sai as a protector is described as constantly drinking nectar, rendering them immune to any "wave of poison," signifying complete spiritual protection and fulfillment.
