Based on these passages, what is the complete path a devotee must follow to cross the 'ocean of worldly existence' and achieve liberation?

Chapter 48 outlines a multi-faceted path to liberation, emphasizing that faith is the ultimate cause for crossing the ocean of worldly existence. The journey begins with faith (Bhava), from which deep, uninterrupted love arises. This love is essential, as without it, practices like listening and reading are considered fruitless. The path also includes active devotion, as the text states that by "serving Sai’s feet with a devotional spirit and remembering Sai, the senses will not behave as they please." A critical component is engaging with the Sai Satcharitra; listening to it with respect and reflecting on its meaning helps break the bonds of Karma, making the crossing "easy and certain."
