Did Sai Baba truly die? Explain the perspective on his continued presence.

The text from Chapter 43 argues strongly that Sai Baba did not truly perish. While he did leave his physical body in Shirdi, this act is described as a voluntary merging with the unmanifest, not a cessation of being. The author questions, 'Who will believe these words?' regarding his death, suggesting it is not the full story. It is emphasized that he remains eternally in the hearts of his devotees and, in his true form, fills the entire 'moving and non-moving world.' This continuous existence is proven, the text suggests, by the fact that devotees can still experience his presence based on the feeling in their minds, similar to how other great saints like Gyaneshwar gave darshan centuries after their physical departure.
