If Baba's body is gone, how can he still be considered present and powerful?

Chapter 43 directly confronts this potential doubt by urging followers not to believe Sai's existence was confined to his physical body. It states, 'Let such a doubt not come to the mind; Shri Sai is beyond death,' and clarifies that it is 'improper talk' to say he was of a specific form. The text explains that after leaving his body, Baba merged into the unmanifest and 'in his true form, he fills the moving and non-moving world.' His power is not diminished; rather, he has become one with Brahman. The author asserts that even today, one can experience his influence based on the feeling in one's mind, which is presented as proof of his continued, all-pervading presence.
