Chapter 37 of the Shri Sai Satcharitra portrays Sai Baba's state as incomprehensible and marvelous. He is described as being at times intoxicated with Brahmananda (the bliss of the Self) and at other times completely detached even while performing actions. Despite appearing inactive, he was always alert and focused on Self-realization. His conduct was guided by a profound sense of spiritual kinship; the text states that He "holds brotherhood with men and treats women as His sisters or mothers." This behavior, coupled with his status as a known celibate, underscored his divine, unpredictable nature that often left his followers in a state of quiet amazement.
Based on the Satcharitra, how is Sai Baba's personal state and his conduct towards men and women described?
