Chapter 36 of the Shri Sai Satcharitra addresses this by portraying Sai Baba as a transcendent being who is not bound by worldly identities. The phrase 'no name or village' emphasizes his detachment from earthly attachments and his universal nature. Simultaneously, his 'infinite glory' stems from his divine power and compassionate actions. The text explains that 'he can turn a beggar into a king in a moment with the play of his eyebrows' and that on whomever he bestows grace, 'he shows them various forms.' Thus, his glory is not derived from a worldly name or place but from his inherent spiritual prowess and his ability to manifest inconceivable events for the welfare of his devotees, which is why the 'flag of his devotion flutters' everywhere.
Chapter 36 describes Sai Baba with seemingly contradictory attributes, such as having 'no name or village' yet possessing 'infinite glory.' How does the source explain this paradox?
