According to the teachings in Chapter 43, it is a misunderstanding to believe that Sai Baba is gone. Although his task for the devotees was completed and he left his body, he did not cease to exist. Instead, he merged himself into the unmanifest and remains eternally present in the hearts of his followers. The text poses a rhetorical question: how could a being so filled with consciousness, who was firmly imprinted in the hearts of devotees, ever truly perish? It affirms that this beginningless and endless Sai will remain unbroken even at the end of the universe, and his influence continues to be felt today, proving he is beyond death.
Now that Sai Baba has left his physical body, is he truly gone? What does the scripture say about his current state?
