How does Chapter 26 of the Sai Satcharitra describe the concept of Maya and the nature of the physical world?

Chapter 26 explains that the physical world and the entire universe are an illusion created by Maya, similar to a city reflected in a mirror or a dream that seems real but vanishes upon waking. The text uses the analogy of a rope being mistaken for a snake due to ignorance to illustrate how our perception of the world is a misapprehension of our true Self. This illusory world, from the Creator down to a blade of grass, is described as having no independent existence outside the Self. According to the teachings in this chapter, this illusion only dissolves with true knowledge, which is granted by a Sadguru when the time for awakening arrives.
