How does Chapter 36 describe Sai Baba's paradoxical nature, specifically concerning when and how he acts in the world?

📖 Chapter 36

Chapter 36 portrays Sai Baba's nature as deeply paradoxical. It describes him as a being who has "no name or village" and who stays "distant and detached from his name," yet simultaneously "causes various events to occur." This suggests a divine play where he acts as the ultimate cause without being directly entangled in the action itself. He is depicted as the "incarnation of the knowledge of Truth" who shows realization as a witness. On whomever he bestows his grace, he shows them various forms and creates many inconceivable events, demonstrating his power to intervene profoundly while remaining fundamentally unattached.
