If Baba has merged with Brahman, what does this mean for Shirdi and his devotees now?

According to Chapter 43, even though Sai Baba left his physical body in Shirdi and became one with Brahman, his presence and power remain undiminished. The text asserts that in his true form, he "fills the moving and non-moving world" and remains the "protector of the devotees' cause." It powerfully states that "Whatever the feeling in one's mind, such is the experience even today," confirming that his influence is still proven and active. He remains unbroken and continues to keep his devotees spiritually awake from his unmanifest state.
