Can you explain the analogy of the mother cat and her kittens as described in Chapter 15? What does it represent?

📖 Chapter 15

Chapter 15 uses the analogy of a mother cat and her kittens to describe the prayer of loving devotees and how Sai grants them His vision. In this comparison, the kittens represent the devotees who eagerly and lovingly run to cling to the mother cat, who symbolizes the Guru, Sai. The mother cat might initially seem annoyed and growl, causing the kittens to pause. However, when they swarm around her and cling with love again, her maternal affection takes over, and milk begins to flow. As explained in Chapter 15, this illustrates how the persistent and loving efforts of a devotee can overcome any initial distance, ultimately winning the Guru's grace and nourishment.
