How does Sai Baba connect with his devotees, especially those who are far away?

The text explains that Baba has unique ways of reaching his followers, even from a great distance. Chapter 28 highlights his promise: "My person may be in distant lands, may be thousands of miles away, I will bring him like a sparrow's chick, binding a string to his feet." This illustrates his divine play in attracting devotees. The chapter also describes how Baba would appear in dreams to give darshan, help them overcome addictions like liquor, and remove their troubles, thereby creating a deep love for him in their hearts.
