How does the story of Sapatnekar in chapter 48 illustrate Sai Baba's divine nature and omniscience?

πŸ“– Chapter 48

The story of Sapatnekar provides a powerful illustration of Sai Baba's divine attributes. Initially, Sapatnekar was tormented by Baba's rebukes, but his faith was solidified when he witnessed a miracle. As Chapter 48 recounts, Baba narrated Sapatnekar's entire life story to a third party, proving his intimate knowledge of the devotee's past. This led to the conclusion that for Baba, everything was as clear as a "gooseberry in the palm of the hand." The text further explains this by stating that Baba is the form of Brahman, one with the universe, and beyond the duality of "mine" and "thine." He is described as the seer, seeing, and seen, untouched by worldly distinctions, which this event perfectly demonstrated to Sapatnekar.
