How does the author of Chapter 36 describe the nature of Sai Baba's stories and the experience of listening to them?

In Chapter 36, the author emphasizes that Sai Baba's stories are far more than simple narratives. They are described as "the very water of self-bliss," which has the profound effect of intensely increasing a person's thirst for devotion. The text suggests that engaging with these stories is a delightful experience, capable of removing the fatigue and misery associated with worldly existence, ultimately leading to a state of happiness. As presented in this chapter, for any fortunate soul seeking their own spiritual welfare, respectfully listening to the narration of Sai’s stories is presented as a direct path toward that goal, purifying both the listener and the speaker.
