Can you explain the teaching methodology of Sai Baba as described by the phrase 'donning the cloak of ignorance' in Chapter 16?

πŸ“– Chapter 16

Chapter 16 describes a unique teaching method where Sai Baba, despite being an ocean of Truth and Consciousness, would don the "cloak of ignorance" to instruct the ignorant. This means he would seemingly act as if he were an ordinary person, engaging with people on their own terms and within the boundaries of conventional conduct. By doing this, he could provide "sweet instruction" in a way that was accessible and non-intimidating. This approach allowed him to fulfill a devotee's faith, as mentioned in the chapter, and thereby impress the sign of Truth upon their mind in a gentle and effective manner.
