Chapter 44 draws a profound parallel, yet also a subtle distinction, between Sai Baba and deities like Rama and Krishna. It asserts that fundamentally, the three are one and the same, and their names are interchangeable. However, it also contrasts them by stating that while the forms of Gods are beautiful and handsome, Saints like Sai are the very form of bliss. Furthermore, it highlights a difference in their divine grace; whereas God states, "As they approach me, so I receive them," a Saint like Sai is portrayed as being so compassionate that he will "melt even for their detractors."
