How does Chapter 22 explain Sai Baba's role in creating and dispelling illusion?

📖 Chapter 22

Chapter 22 of the Shri Sai Satcharitra uses a powerful metaphor to explain Sai Baba's relationship with illusion and reality. The text compares a snake seen in dim light, which turns out to be a rope in the light, to our worldly perceptions. According to this chapter, Baba is the creator of both the illusion (the snake-like tendency) and the one who reveals the truth (the rope). He is described as the cause of the illusion and, ultimately, the one who removes the fear it creates. This demonstrates his supreme power over the seen and unseen, a nature so profound that even the Vedas fall silent in their attempts to describe it.
