Based on the text, what are the spiritual benefits a devotee can gain by hearing and contemplating Sai Baba's stories?

Chapter 2 outlines numerous spiritual benefits that arise from engaging with Sai Baba's stories. It states that through hearing, singing, and contemplating these narratives, "devotion to Me will be born and ignorance will be destroyed immediately." This process is said to cultivate faith in the hearts of listeners, leading to direct self-experience and self-bliss, ultimately resulting in a state of happiness. The text goes further, promising that the devotee will gain knowledge of their true form, leading to a harmony between the soul and Shiva. Ultimately, the "unperceivable, formless, and dense Consciousness will manifest," which is described as the entire goal of the Vedas.
