The text places Sai Baba's eternal presence within a revered lineage of Indian saints who transcended physical death. Chapter 43 explicitly draws parallels, reminding readers that Maharaj Gyanoba (Gyaneshwar) gave darshan three centuries after his samadhi. It lists other saints who remain eternally present in their respective holy places: Nath Maharaj in Paithan, Tukaram Maharaj in Dehu, Narasimha Saraswati in Alandi, and Samarth Ramdas in Parli. The text concludes this comparison by stating, 'Sai is the same in Shirdi.' This shows that Baba's merging with the unmanifest while remaining active for devotees is a recognized spiritual phenomenon demonstrated by many great masters.
