Can you elaborate on the philosophical distinction between birth and death for a regular person versus an enlightened Yogi like Sai Baba?

πŸ“– Chapter 43

The text draws a sharp philosophical distinction. For an ordinary person, birth is the union of body and senses, and death is their separation, an inseparable cycle. For a Yogi like Sai Baba, who incarnates by his own will for the welfare of devotees, birth and death are considered false imaginations. As explained in Chapter 43, Sai is the complete Supreme Brahman, for whom the world is an illusion and consciousness of the body is absent. He is described as having already turned the body to ashes even before it falls, making physical death like dust before him. This highlights that his existence is not bound by the physical laws and karmic cycles that govern ordinary life.
