How does the narrative of Laxmichand in Chapter 28 illustrate the concept of Baba as the 'Antaryami' or inner-knower?

The story of Laxmichand in Chapter 28 provides a compelling case study of Sai Baba's nature as Antaryami, the indweller who knows all thoughts. The text presents two key instances. First, Baba perceives Laxmichand's unspoken craving for khaja and his physical suffering from hunger and back pain, addressing them directly. Second, and more profoundly, Baba vocalizes Laxmichand’s fleeting, private thought about an "evil eye" being the cause of His cough. The narrative explicitly states, "Whatever was in Laxmichand's mind, that was clearly expressed in Baba's words. Echo without sound - Maharaj has inner knowledge." This demonstrates that Baba's awareness extended into the most secret corners of a devotee's mind.
