Chapter 10 describes Baba sleeping on a flimsy plank suspended by rags. How does the text explain the physics of this and what does it reveal about his Siddhis?

📖 Chapter 10

Chapter 10 addresses the seemingly impossible feat of Baba sleeping on a narrow plank held by mere rags by explaining that his Great Siddhis, or divine powers, rendered the physical support irrelevant. The text posits that the plank was "merely for name's sake," as his powers transcended ordinary physical laws. The chapter specifically mentions the power of 'Anima' (the ability to become minute), suggesting Baba could alter his form. It explains that his movements could be as easy and subtle as those of flies, insects, or ants, revealing that his ability to rest there was a display of his divine powers, not a reliance on physical support.
