Chapter 10 describes this mysterious sleeping arrangement in detail. Baba would sleep on a narrow wooden plank, just four cubits long and one span wide, which was suspended from the rafters by old rags like a swing. The text highlights that his movements were imperceptible; no one ever saw him climb up to or descend from the plank. This seemingly impossible feat is explained by the fact that Baba possessed Great Siddhis (powers). The chapter specifically mentions 'Anima,' the power to become minute, suggesting he could move as easily as a fly or ant. Therefore, the plank was described as being 'merely for name’s sake,' as his divine powers, not the flimsy rags, supported him.
Can you explain the deal with the wooden plank Baba slept on? How did he even get up there without anyone seeing?
