Based on the text, what was Sai Baba's perspective on worldly life and how did it influence his compassion?

Sai Baba viewed worldly life as a mere illusion, much like the wealth of a kingdom in a dream is useless upon waking. Chapter 10 explains that He considered the pleasures and pains of the body to be false. This perspective fueled his compassion, which was directed not at his disciples' worldly problems but at their spiritual bondage. Seeing them trapped in this "dream-delusion" stirred great compassion in his heart. His constant concern was how his disciples might attain a state beyond the body and achieve liberation, reflecting a compassion focused entirely on spiritual welfare.
