How did Sai Baba describe his intense devotion and daily life with his own Guru?

Sai Baba described his time with his Guru as a period of complete and loving absorption. According to Chapter 19, he stayed at his Guru's feet for twelve years, during which he was cared for in every way. His devotion was so all-consuming that it transcended physical needs. Baba recounts, "I would gaze at my Guru's face with love day and night; I felt neither hunger nor thirst; without the Guru, my mind was restless." He clarifies that this constant, loving contemplation was the only thing his Guru expected from him. He saw his Guru as a "veritable idol of devotion and love," and their connection was so joyful that Baba knew "no other sight." This illustrates a path of devotion where the relationship with the Guru becomes the sole focus and source of sustenance.
