How did Sai Baba describe His true nature when instructing Hemadpant on how to perform His service?

After directing Hemadpant towards His service, Sai Baba elaborated on His true form to clarify what should be worshipped. Chapter 3 explains that Baba distinguished between His perishable body and the imperishable Brahman, which is His true self. He stated, "I am filled on all four sides in the form of the eightfold nature (Ashtadha-prakriti)," a teaching He likened to the Gita. He revealed that He is present in all things with name and form, playing as this eightfold nature, and that there is no object in the universe different from the Self.
