How does following Sai Baba help one overcome their ego? Are there any stories about this?

Devotion to Sai Baba is often shown as a direct path to dissolving the ego. The transformation of Boss Dharamsee in Chapter 35 is a prime example. He arrived in Shirdi with "clinical scrutiny," his ego manifesting as judgment and skepticism. His internal complaints about the type of grapes offered and his questioning of Baba's sainthood were products of this ego. However, the personal and undeniable miracle of the grapes turning seedless completely bypassed his intellect and shattered his egotistical framework. As Chapter 35 describes, "All his ego dropped away, and love for the saint was born." This shows that by surrendering to Baba's inscrutable ways, one's ego can be replaced with love and genuine devotion.
