If Baba left his physical body, how can he still be present and help his devotees today?

The text from Chapter 43 provides strong reassurance that Sai Baba's presence is not limited to his physical form. It argues that Baba was never confined to his body, which was merely 'three and a half cubits.' Upon his departure, he 'merged himself into the unmanifest' but also 'stayed in the hearts of the devotees.' His true form is described as filling the entire 'moving and non-moving world.' The chapter explicitly states that even from the unmanifest state, he 'always keeps the devotees awake.' Therefore, his influence is proven to continue, and the experience a devotee has of him today is based on the feeling and devotion within their own mind.
