Chapter 7 explains that despite Sai Baba's ambiguous religious identity, even the most orthodox Brahmins revered him. The text notes that the 'best of Brahmins' and even Agnihotris, who are keepers of the sacred fire and pride themselves on ritual purity, would abandon their pride and prostrate before him. People who came intending to find proof of his religious affiliation would be so amazed by his presence that they would become 'silent and humble.' This suggests that Baba's divine aura and spiritual power transcended conventional social and religious boundaries, compelling even the most ritually strict individuals to offer him worship.
Based on Chapter 7, how did orthodox Brahmins react to Sai Baba, given his ambiguous religious identity and residence in a mosque?
