In Chapter 34, how is the power of Udi contrasted with the limitations of medical science?

Chapter 34 starkly contrasts the perceived omnipotence of Sai Baba's Udi with the fallibility of human medical expertise. The narrative introduces a degree-holding doctor and his expert surgeon friends who, despite their knowledge and efforts, were exhausted and helpless against the boy's bone-cyst. The text highlights that all native, foreign, and surgical treatments failed. This failure of established science sets the stage for the introduction of a spiritual remedy. The family turns to Sai Baba's Udi as a last resort, and Baba's simple instruction to apply the ash stands in direct opposition to the complex, failed medical interventions, positioning Udi as a divine solution that succeeds where science cannot.
