How does Sai Baba decide on the method to grant grace to his devotees? Is it always the same?

Sai Baba's method for granting grace is not a one-size-fits-all approach. As explained in Chapter 27, the specific method is determined by several factors unique to the individual devotee. These factors include the devotee's authority, their mental disposition, the service they have rendered, and the depth of their love and devotion. The text clarifies that this is not a universal rule; rather, Baba's wonderful and surprising acts of grace are tailored to the recipient. He might fulfill a devotee's purpose through casual joking and humor when the thought hadn't even occurred to others, demonstrating a highly personalized approach to bestowing blessings and guidance.
