In what ways was Sai Baba's physical appearance and identity a paradox between Hindu and Muslim traditions?

Chapter 7 describes Sai Baba as an extraordinary incarnation whose origins were impossible to trace to one religion. This paradox was reflected in his physical being and appearance. The text states that if one called Him a Hindu, He looked like a Yavana (Muslim), but if called a Yavana, He had the noble marks of a Hindu. More specifically, the chapter points out a direct contradiction: his ears were pierced, a custom often seen in Hindu traditions, yet there was also evidence of his circumcision, a practice associated with Islam. This made it impossible for anyone to definitively claim him as belonging to either community, emphasizing his holy nature beyond such distinctions.
