The narrative in Chapter 35 suggests that becoming part of Sai's community is a process of internal change, guided by Baba himself, rather than a formal procedure. The key is to become egoless. The text advises, "Becoming egoless and rolling at his feet, you will enjoy the festival of happiness." The story of Boss Dharamsee is a case in point. He came to Shirdi with a skeptical and egotistical mindset but was transformed by a personal miracle involving grapes. This experience caused his "ego to drop away," and "love for Sai arose in his heart." Ultimately, it is Baba who gives the inspiration and leads one toward the spiritual path, forming the basis of his community.
How can one become a part of Sai's circle? Is there a specific process or requirement?
