While Sai Baba's body was interred in Shirdi, Chapter 43 cautions against limiting his presence to that single location. The text directly addresses this by asking, "Now, what is there in Shirdi? Maharaj has become one with Brahman." It clarifies that his true form fills the entire moving and non-moving world. The scripture makes a comparison, stating that just as Samarth Ramdas is in Parli, "Sai is the same in Shirdi," implying his spiritual essence remains. However, it expands on this by saying he merged into the unmanifest and that his influence is proven today by the fact that devotees experience his presence according to the feeling in their own mind, meaning he is universally accessible and not confined to one place.
Is Sai Baba's presence still in Shirdi? What does the scripture say about where he can be found today?
