Could you explain Sai Baba's method of giving instruction and grace as described in the texts?

πŸ“– Chapter 27

Chapter 27 illustrates that Sai Baba's method of instruction was not uniform but wonderfully tailored to the individual. His approach depended on the recipient's capacity, mental disposition, service, and love. The text uses the analogy of a skilled doctor who knows the right medicine for a disease. Just as a doctor might use a trick, like offering sweet jaggery first, to convince a reluctant patient to take their medicine, Baba would sometimes use humor, play, and indirect means to achieve his purpose and grant grace. His manner of initiation was surprising and determined by what was best for the devotee's spiritual well-being.
