Chapter 43 explicitly draws parallels between Sai Baba and other revered saints to emphasize that his presence endures beyond physical death. The text poses a rhetorical question about Maharaj Gyaneshwar, noting he gave darshan three centuries after his samadhi. It then states that just as Nath Maharaj became the light of Paithan, Tukaram Maharaj in Dehu, and Samarth Ramdas in Parli, 'Sai is the same in Shirdi.' This comparison serves to assure the reader that, like these other great spiritual figures who transcended physical limitations, Sai Baba's influence is unbroken and he remains accessible to devotees based on their faith and feeling.
How does the text compare Sai Baba's existence after leaving his body to other great saints of India?
