How did Sai Baba use extreme yogic practices like Khanda-yoga for the welfare of others?

Sai Baba demonstrated profound yogic mastery and compassion by using his own body to help his devotees. Chapter 7 reveals that Baba would toil for others, wear out his own body, and even bear the sufferings of his followers. One of the extraordinary ways he did this was through his practice of Khanda-yoga, which involved the disjointing of his own limbs. The text describes astonishing experiments where his hands, feet, and head would be separated and then joined back together as before. These practices, along with others like Dhauti (cleansing the stomach), were not for show but were part of his spiritual work to protect and suffer for his devotees.
