If Baba is described as the 'foundation of everyone,' why did he have a silver throne and accept physical comforts from devotees?

πŸ“– Chapter 11

While it is true that Baba, being the foundation of all, had no intrinsic need for a seat or other comforts, he accepted them for the sake of his devotees' feelings. Chapter 11 clarifies that his original seat was just a piece of sackcloth, but the faithful would place a beautiful cushion on it. A silver throne was provided, and he accepted it, just as he accepted a bolster placed for his back. This demonstrates a key aspect of his character: 'As was the heart's desire of the devotees, so did Baba behave,' showing that he prioritized their devotional sentiments over his own needs.
