I am skeptical about spirituality but remain curious. How does Sai Baba appeal to individuals who approach with a critical or scientific mindset?

Sai Baba has his own unique ways of drawing people to the spiritual path, even those with a clinical or skeptical interest. As described in Chapter 35, he gives them inspiration and works with their natural disposition to lead them toward spirituality. The story of Boss Dharamsee illustrates this perfectly. Dharamsee arrived with a critical eye, questioning Baba's abilities when offered grapes he disliked. Baba, knowing his innermost thoughts and dislike for seeded grapes, miraculously transformed them into seedless ones as Dharamsee ate them. This personal experience stunned Dharamsee, causing his ego to drop away and be replaced by love and devotion for the saint, showing how Baba meets people where they are to foster genuine faith.
