Drawing from the text, explain the metaphor of Sai as a 'powerful magnet' in the context of the Chavadi nights.

In Chapter 37, the author uses the metaphor of Sai as a 'powerful magnet' to explain His profound spiritual influence over his followers during the Chavadi celebrations. Just as a magnet attracts iron, Sai, with the 'attraction of His own power,' would pull the 'iron-like devotees' and draw them unknowingly to His feet. This imagery highlights the irresistible and natural spiritual pull that Baba exerted, causing devotees to flock to the bhajan assemblies. It suggests that their participation was not just a conscious decision but a deep, compelling spiritual response to Baba's divine presence.
