Chapter 43 provides strong assurance of Baba's eternal presence. It explains that his body was merely an adjunct and that he has merged into the unmanifest, staying in the hearts of his devotees. The text points to historical precedents, such as Maharaj Gyaneshwar giving darshan three centuries after his passing, to show that great saints are not bound by physical departure. Just as other great saints remain present in their respective holy places, Sai is the same in Shirdi. The scripture confirms that even today, whatever the feeling in a devotee's mind, they can experience Baba's presence, proving that the protector of devotees continues his work.
How can we be sure that Sai Baba is still with us and helping us, even after his Mahasamadhi?
