In Chapter 11 of the Sai Satcharitra, the concept of death is explained through a philosophical lens. The text teaches that the physical body is perishable and will inevitably end, but a devotee should not grieve this fact because the true spiritual essence is 'beginningless and endless.' It describes the entire visible universe as an expression of the Unmanifest, which came into form and will ultimately merge back into the Unmanifest. Based on this principle, the chapter concludes that true death does not exist for anyone. It then poses the rhetorical question of how there could be death for Baba, affirming that Shri Sai is eternally pure, enlightened, untainted, and deathless.
