How does Sai Baba describe his relationship with different types of people and what does he promise his devotees?

In Chapter 3, it is explained that Sai Baba, as an aspect of Hari, is drawn to simple and innocent devotees who possess love. He is described as being "completely sold to love" but remains stubborn toward hypocrites. To his devotees, Baba makes several profound promises. He tells Shama that he will fulfill all the tasks of anyone who takes his name with love. For those who lovingly sing his life story and deeds, he promises to surround and protect them by standing "before, behind, and on all four sides of him." He also vows liberation for those who surrender to him, worship him with faith, and constantly remember him.
