How does the practice of bowing to all beings, as advised by Baba, function as a path to devotion?

The practice of bowing to all beings is intrinsically linked to the path of devotion in Sai Baba's teachings. Chapter 22 explains that by 'becoming egoless' and bowing your head to all, you engage in a profound spiritual practice. This act of humility actively dismantles the ego, which is often the greatest barrier to experiencing divine connection and grace. The text from Chapter 22 explicitly calls this an 'easy means of devotion,' suggesting that true devotion is not just about ritual, but about cultivating a state of being where one sees the divine in all creation and approaches the world with reverence.
