Based on the provided texts, there is no mention of Sai Baba sacrificing a goat. Instead, the story highlights his immense compassion for them. Chapter 46 recounts an incident where Baba, upon meeting a flock of goats, felt "supreme joy." He proceeded to purchase two specific goats for thirty-two rupees, a price far above their market value. His motivation was not for sacrifice, but out of a deep sense of love and mercy. The scripture explains that "seeing both of them in animal birth, mercy arose in Sai Samarth" and "He remembered the great affection of a previous birth." He then lovingly stroked the goats and kept them with a devotee named Kondaji. The entire narrative focuses on Baba saving or protecting the goats out of compassion, not harming them.
I heard a story about Sai Baba sacrificing a goat. Is this true according to the texts?
