Chapter 52 talks a lot about liberation. How does it say a Guru, specifically Sai Baba, helps a devotee achieve this and overcome the cycle of birth and death?

According to Chapter 52, the Guru is essential for achieving liberation from the cycle of birth and death. The text states that those who desire this freedom should connect with the feet of the Guru through continuous remembrance and devotion. Sai Baba is depicted as a compassionate guide who leads His faithful devotees to liberation while they are still in their bodies, mysteriously steering them toward the supreme goal. As explained in this chapter, by taking refuge at Sai’s feet, a devotee's sense of individual self or 'I-ness' is relinquished, and the feeling of duality vanishes. This union with the Guru, likened to a river merging with the ocean, is presented as the definitive path to salvation.
