Dadasaheb Khaparde, despite being a very learned man and a famous orator in the Legislative Assembly, showed profound and unique devotion to Sai Baba. As described in Chapter 27, unlike many other devotees who spoke freely with Baba, Khaparde observed a vow of silence in his presence. He would simply join his hands and bow his head at Baba's feet with indescribable humility. This practice demonstrated his belief that the brilliance of worldly knowledge and oratory (Word-Brahman) was dim before the divine presence of Sai, whom he saw as the Supreme Brahman. His silence was a powerful expression of reverence and submission.
