How does Chapter 43 describe Sai Baba's state after he left his physical form?

According to the descriptions in Chapter 43, after leaving his body, Sai Baba did not cease to exist but rather transformed. He moved from being manifest in a physical body to becoming unmanifest and omnipresent. The chapter explains that he reached an imperishable state, devoid of the cycle of rebirth, and merged completely with his true self. This transition is described not as a death caused by worldly affliction, but as a yogic process where saints, by igniting their own inner light, consciously perform the act of leaving their bodies. By losing his localized nature, he became eternally whole and the life and soul of all.
