Can you explain the analogies used in Chapter 15 to describe the relationship between the storyteller, the listeners, and Sai's devotees?

📖 Chapter 15

Chapter 15 of the Shri Sai Satcharitra employs several powerful analogies. First, the author compares the listeners to a vast ocean that graciously accepts all rivers, whether their waters are pure like the Ganges or a muddy village stream. This illustrates the listeners' capacity to receive the stories with an open heart. The chapter then introduces a second analogy to describe the loving persistence of devotees towards Sai. It compares them to kittens who eagerly run to their mother cat. Even if the mother initially growls, their persistent affection causes milk to flow, and she lovingly embraces them. According to Chapter 15, this beautifully illustrates how Sai responds to the loving prayers of His devotees.
