How does Sai Baba's control over the comings and goings of devotees in Shirdi reflect his state of being beyond duality?

πŸ“– Chapter 35

Chapter 35 presents a fascinating paradox. On one hand, Baba has absolute control, with his sayings confirming, "No one comes unless I bring them" and "Without my wish, who will leave the doorstep?" This demonstrates his divine authority. On the other hand, the text describes his personal state as being completely beyond duality. He experiences "no joy in being worshipped, nor sorrow in being insulted." Although he himself does everything, he outwardly maintains perfect detachment. This shows that his control is not an act of ego but a function of his divine nature, which operates with merciful intent while remaining unaffected by the dualistic world of praise, blame, joy, or grief.
