From the perspective of Sai Baba's teachings, can a true devotee ever feel lonely or isolated?

Based on the wisdom shared in Chapter 27, a true devotee should not experience loneliness or isolation, as these feelings are based on a false sense of separation. Sai Baba teaches that the Guru and devotee are unified in a non-dual state, essentially being 'one with each other.' The text encourages devotees to 'hide at Sai's feet,' with the promise that the Guru 'will protect you with the abundance of his grace.' This complete surrender and the realization of this inherent oneness negates the very concept of being alone. Therefore, any feeling of isolation is a product of ignorance or a superficial understanding, not the reality of the spiritual bond.
