Chapter 49 powerfully illustrates the limits of language in capturing the essence of the Sadguru. The author states that the Sadguru's Leela is inexpressible and His greatness is unfathomable. The chapter explains that where transcendental speech (Para) returns and other stages of speech (Pashyanti, Madhyama) do not open their mouths, the fourth stage, the spoken word (Vaikhari), is utterly incapable. As conveyed in Chapter 49, the author feels that silence is the only real praise, but the qualities of Sai compel him to speak, even with the knowledge that words will always fall short of describing the inconceivable.
How does Chapter 49 describe the limitations of speech when trying to convey the greatness of a Sadguru like Sai Baba?
