Chapter 44 of the Shri Sai Satcharitra opens with powerful invocations that describe the divine nature and key characteristics of Sai Baba. He is hailed as the "embodiment of consciousness" and the "abode of all happiness." One of his primary qualities is his boundless compassion; his grace is said to destroy poverty, and simply bowing at his feet can wash away all sins. The text highlights his inner state, noting he was desireless, without pride, and free from greed or craving, with "Allah Malik" (God is King) as his constant meditation. As Chapter 44 beautifully states, he was "kind even to those who harm Him," showcasing the profound peace he possessed. Looking at his smiling face was enough to make one forget all worldly sorrows.
