To build a community around Sai's teachings, Chapter 37 emphasizes several core principles. The foundation must be an unwavering devotion fixed at the Guru's feet and a greatly increased spirit of service. A key practice for community members is to cultivate the ability to see Divinity in all beings and maintain an eternal love for God's name. The text explicitly values gathering together, stating that a place is only worthwhile if it has devotees of God, narration of stories about the Guru, music, dance, and worship. This implies that a strong community is one that actively facilitates collective devotion, service, and the sharing of spiritual knowledge, fostering a pure and respectful atmosphere modeled after Sai's own conduct.
