How does Chapter 10 explain the mechanics behind Baba's ability to sleep on a narrow, suspended plank, and what does this imply about his true nature?

📖 Chapter 10

Chapter 10 offers a metaphysical explanation for Baba's seemingly impossible feat. It questions how such a flimsy plank tied with rags could even support his weight, concluding that the plank was 'merely for name’s sake.' The true mechanism was his mastery of Great Siddhis, or divine powers. The text specifically mentions 'Anima,' the power to become minute, suggesting that Baba could alter his form or state to move with the ease of flies, insects, or ants. This implies that his nature was not confined to his physical body, but was that of a divine being unbound by physical laws.
