Chapter 20 of the Shri Sai Satcharitra offers profound insights into Sai Baba's essential nature. The text states that "Sai is originally formless, but took form for the sake of his devotees." It beautifully illustrates this by saying he accepted the role of the actress "Maya" and played his part like a true actor. Furthermore, Chapter 20 describes Sai as a "Siddhashram," an abode of the perfected, whose very sight relieves the fatigue of worldly life. For those close to him, his constant presence is said to drive away the delusion of existence, offering a shelter that ends the cycle of rebirths.
