Chapter 45 describes the loss of Sai's physical form. How does the author characterize this form and its impact on devotees?

The author in Chapter 45 deeply laments the loss of Sai's physical form, which is now "lost to our sight." This form is described as a source of immense spiritual benefit. Its vision brought eternal contentment, its company provided the enjoyment of bliss, and its mere presence granted liberation from the fear of worldly existence. The chapter also notes that this Sai-form guided devotees to the supreme goal, removed the illusion of Maya, and awakened a sense of justice and morality, giving courage in times of distress before Sai departed for His supreme abode.
