From a spiritual perspective, how can a devotee overcome the sense of physical distance from their Guru according to Baba's words?

According to the teachings in Chapter 27, a devotee can overcome the sense of physical distance by shifting their focus from the gross to the subtle. The text dismisses the act of placing 'the devotee's head on the Guru's feet' as 'just a gross ritual,' implying that true connection is not based on physical proximity. Instead, a devotee should engage in 'non-dual worship' and, like an ant greedy for jaggery, 'hide at Sai's feet' in unwavering devotion, trusting the Guru will protect them. The advice is to awaken from the 'sleep of ignorance,' surrender at the Guru's feet, and pursue spiritual accomplishment through contemplation, which dissolves the illusion of separation.
