Chapter 24 mentions that people can be 'blind despite having eyes.' What is the deeper meaning of this statement in the context of the chapter's teachings?

In Chapter 24, the phrase 'blind despite having eyes' refers to a state of spiritual ignorance caused by excessive body-consciousness. The text explains that due to the strength of this attachment to the physical form, people do not understand their own true welfare. They chase the 'juice of a momentary pleasure,' forgetting that the body itself is transient and has no certainty. This spiritual blindness prevents them from seeing the path to both worldly interests and the supreme goal (Parmartha), which, as the chapter states, can be achieved through worship of Maharaja Sai.
