How does the scripture redefine the concept of death when it occurs in front of Sai Baba?

Chapter 31 presents death in a saint's presence not as an end, but as a glorious transformation. The text explicitly states, "death is not death, it is Vaikuntha's (heaven's) bliss." It is viewed as the ultimate salvation, an atonement for all sins that ensures there is no return or rebirth for that soul. When a creature's body falls while being seen by a saint, it is not called death but "true self-salvation." It is the ultimate earning of a life, conquering the mortal world.
