How did high-caste Brahmins and Agnihotris react to Sai Baba, as described in Chapter 7?

Chapter 7 explains that despite Sai Baba's ambiguous religious identity and practices that defied convention, He was revered by even the most orthodox members of Hindu society. The text explicitly states that the "best of Brahmins would worship Him" and that "Keepers of the sacred fire (Agnihotris) would prostrate before Him, abandoning their pride in ritual purity." This indicates that His spiritual power and divine presence were so profound that they superseded any concerns about caste or religious protocol. As Chapter 7 concludes, those who came to scrutinize or find proof of His identity would instead become "silent and humble upon seeing Him," attesting to His universal appeal and spiritual authority.
