How is the act of Sai Baba leaving his body described in Chapter 43?

Chapter 43 describes Sai Baba's physical departure not as a typical death but as a conscious, yogic process. The text states that 'Sai Samarth could die at will' and that he 'burned the body in the fire of Yoga.' This act is portrayed as a deliberate transition rather than an involuntary event. By doing this, he 'merged himself into the unmanifest' and attained his 'previous unmanifest state.' This is framed as part of the 'spontaneous play of Yoga for the sake of the devotees' salvation.' The narrative strongly rejects the idea that his body simply perished, emphasizing that for a great Yogi, leaving the body is a controlled and purposeful act.
