Chapter 7 presents a paradox regarding Sai Baba's religious identity. What contradictory evidence is provided about Him being Hindu or Muslim?

πŸ“– Chapter 7

Chapter 7 provides a detailed account of the paradox surrounding Sai Baba's religious identity, making it impossible to categorize Him. If one were to call Him a Hindu, He looked like a Muslim (Yavana), and if called a Muslim, He had the noble marks of a Hindu. Physically, the text notes His ears were pierced in the Hindu tradition, yet evidence of circumcision, a Muslim practice, was also apparent. Furthermore, as Chapter 7 explains, He resided in a mosque, a Muslim place of worship, but within it, He maintained a sacred fire (Dhuni), allowed the ringing of bells, and conducted other Hindu rituals, making His incarnation 'holy and beyond both.'
