Could you explain the relationship between Sai Baba's state of desirelessness and His ultimate authority over life and death as suggested in the text?

Chapter 44 presents Sai Baba as a being who transcended ordinary human limitations. He was described as desireless, without pride, greed, or craving, and His constant meditation was 'Allah Malik' (God is King). This detachment from worldly desires is linked to His spiritual power. The text poignantly asks, "He who has authority even over Time (Death); how can he suffer at its hands?" This implies that His mastery over the self and His egoless state gave Him dominion over the fundamental forces of life and death, making the concept of His 'death' a 'completely false rumor' for the Ultimate Reality He embodied, as explained in Chapter 44.
