Chapter 42 says, 'The birth anniversary of gods is the death anniversary of saints.' What does this mean regarding Sai Baba's passing?

📖 Chapter 42

In the context of Sai Baba's Mahasamadhi, this statement from Chapter 42 draws a profound distinction between divine beings and enlightened saints. While a god's birth is celebrated, for a saint, their death anniversary (Punya Tithi) is the paramount event, marking their final liberation and merging with the ultimate reality. The chapter applies this principle directly to Baba, stating that while the day of his passing was Buddha Jayanti for some, for his devotees it was his Punya Tithi, the sacred anniversary of his departure from the physical form.
