In Chapter 27, Maya is described as the transient and vain business of "I" and "mine," encompassing attachments to one's body, home, son, and wife, which are compared to a fleeting shadow at noon. The chapter posits that this entanglement of Maya can be a significant obstacle on the spiritual path. To overcome it, the text gives a clear instruction: one must surrender to Sai with singular devotion. It notes that even the Vedas and Shastras have struggled to find the end of Maya. The ultimate way to be saved, as mentioned in this chapter, is to cultivate the vision of seeing God in all beings, a state achieved through unwavering faith and surrender to the Sadguru.
