Chapter 23 presents a dual perspective on Sai Baba's identity. On one hand, the author considers Him to be an Incarnation (Avatar) because all the necessary signs and characteristics are present. On the other hand, the chapter emphasizes Baba's own humility. He would frequently say, 'I am a humble servant in the court of Allah.' His constant chants included phrases like 'I am a poor servant,' 'He is the Truth (Ya-De-Haq),' and 'Allah Malik' (God is the Master). This highlights a key aspect of His nature: though He possessed the qualities of an Avatar, He always displayed perfect human conduct and positioned Himself as a servant of God, never claiming divinity by saying 'Anal Haq' (I am God).
How does Chapter 23 describe Sai Baba's identity? He's called an Avatar, but what did he call himself?
