Chapter 16 portrays Sai Baba as a spiritual monarch in a magnificent assembly. He is described as the "Idol seated on the throne of peace" and the "Lord of the Empire of Self-Bliss." In this court, the four Vedas, six Shastras, and eighteen Puranas serve as bards singing his praises. The canopy above is made of Pure Consciousness, spreading Self-bliss. As detailed in this chapter, his authority is so absolute that the sword of his Knowledge makes the tree of worldly existence tremble, and the six enemies like lust and anger cannot survive in his presence.
