When a specific saint is not mentioned by name, the text guides us toward the underlying principle of devotion itself. Chapter 19 shares an experience where the author decides to chant the name of Rama. Just then, he hears a song with the lyrics, "I have found the collyrium of Guru’s grace, my brother; I do not believe in anything without Rama... Rama inside, Rama outside, I see Sita-Rama in my dreams." This suggests that the key is to hold a chosen name or form in your heart with undivided attention. The text emphasizes that by surrendering with an undivided heart, a devotee can witness the marvels of Sai's skill, indicating the power lies in the devotion, not just the specific name being sought.
I'm looking for information about a particular saint, but their name doesn't seem to be in the book. What is the recommended approach in this situation?
