According to the wisdom in Chapter 43, Sai Baba's departure from his physical body was not an end but a transformation. He transcended the material state and merged into the unmanifest, where he continues to enjoy his true self and keeps his devotees awake. The text poignantly asks, 'He who was filled with consciousness and was firmly imprinted in the hearts of devotees—can that body be said to have perished?' Chapter 43 assures us that in his true form, the powerful one fills the moving and non-moving world. This means his influence is unbroken, and whatever the feeling in a devotee's mind, they can experience his presence even today.
If Sai Baba left his body in Shirdi, how can he still be present for his followers today?
