Chapter 46 presents a fascinating paradox regarding Sai Baba's nature. It portrays him as the ultimate puppeteer who "move[s] the strings in such a way that no one knows where You are," guiding the simple and innocent while the proud get stuck. He actively pulls devotees to his feet and nourishes them. However, the chapter simultaneously emphasizes his profound detachment. It states that while he plays all the games from within, he "flies the flag of detachment" and calls himself a "non-doer" even while performing everything. This mysterious character, where he is both the active agent and the detached witness, is described in Chapter 46 as something that no one can fully comprehend.
I'm curious about Sai Baba's role as a 'doer'. How does Chapter 46 describe his involvement in the world while also being detached?
