In what ways is Sai Baba described as a universal figure who is beyond any single religion or deity?

Chapter 4 portrays Sai Baba as a universal master who embodies and transcends religious and divine distinctions. It shows him equating Shirdi with famous Hindu holy sites like Pandhari and Dwarka, and promising that Lord Vitthal would appear there for the faithful. Das Ganu's song, summarized in the chapter, explicitly describes Baba as the Hindu Trinity of Brahma, Vishnu, and Shiva, and highlights his ability to show different divine moods, from the fierce form of Rudra to the playful nature of Krishna. His universality is perfectly captured in the line that he "loves the Hindus and lives in a mosque for Muslims." By producing the sacred Ganga and Yamuna waters from his toes, he proved that all holy places resided within him, establishing himself as an all-encompassing spiritual destination for people of all faiths.
