How did Sai Baba describe His true, all-pervading nature when instructing Hemadpant on the proper way to worship?

In Chapter 3, Sai Baba distinguished between His perishable physical form and His true, eternal nature. He explained that He is the imperishable Brahman, which is the ultimate object of worship. He elaborated on this by stating He is present everywhere in the form of the eightfold nature (Ashtadha-prakriti), a concept also found in the Gita. Baba declared, "Whatever has name, form, or shape, in the world of the moving and unmoving, I alone am playing as the eightfold nature." He identified Himself with the sacred Om (Pranav) and explained that He is filled within all objects and directions. Understanding this truth, where 'I' and 'mine' dissolve, eliminates all desires.
