Chapter 50 reveals the author's ultimate spiritual aspiration. What does Hemadpant prioritize over traditional liberation, and what is his reasoning?

In a revealing section of Chapter 50, the author, Hemadpant, expresses a spiritual desire that transcends conventional goals. He explicitly states a lack of desire for the "four types of liberation like Salokata." Instead of seeking liberation, which implies an initial state of bondage, he makes a profound statement: "We were never bound in the first place; what connection do we have with liberation?" As detailed in Chapter 50, his supreme attainment and single-minded prayer is for "steady devotion to Sai to be firmly attached." The reasoning is that the "awakening of devotion to the Saint" is the true path, as "by that alone the heart becomes pure." This indicates a preference for the path of loving devotion over the path of liberation.
