Chapter 36 explicitly states that the "greatness of saints is infinite; no one can truly describe it." The author uses his own position to illustrate this point, questioning his authority and acknowledging the inadequacy of his ego-driven self, or "I-ness," to perform such a task. The chapter suggests that the divine nature of a being like Sai Baba transcends human comprehension and language. Sai is described as a being who is detached, has no name, yet possesses infinite glory and orchestrates inconceivable events. As Chapter 36 implies, any attempt to capture this infinitude through the limited medium of words is bound to be incomplete. The only way his story is told is when Sai himself takes over the narrator, using them as an instrument.
From the perspective of Chapter 36, why is it considered impossible for anyone to truly describe the greatness of saints like Sai Baba?
