How did Sai Baba's enigmatic and transcendent nature affect His devotees, particularly those from the high-caste Brahmin community?

As described in Chapter 7, Sai Baba's nature, which was holy and beyond the confines of Hindu or Muslim identity, had a profound effect on His followers. People who came seeking proof of His origins would become 'silent and humble' in His presence. This impact was particularly notable among the highest echelons of the Hindu caste system. The text explicitly states that 'the best of Brahmins would worship Him.' Even Agnihotris, keepers of the sacred fire who pride themselves on ritual purity, would abandon their pride and prostrate themselves before Him, demonstrating that His spiritual power and unifying presence transcended conventional social and religious barriers.
