How does Chapter 11 reconcile the perishable nature of the physical body with the eternal, deathless nature of Sai Baba?

Chapter 11 addresses the concept of mortality by explaining that the physical body is perishable and will inevitably end. It advises devotees not to grieve this but to focus on the eternal, which is beginningless and endless. The chapter posits that the entire visible creation is the essence of the Unmanifest, having come from it and destined to merge back into it. Therefore, there is no true death for anyone. In this context, Chapter 11 asserts that there can be no death for Baba, as Shri Sai is described as eternally pure, enlightened, untainted, and deathless. He is the very essence of the Unmanifest from which all forms arise and into which they ultimately return.
