Sai Baba instructed Hemadpant to perform 'my service.' How did He elaborate on the nature of this worship and His own true form?

When Baba told Hemadpant to perform His service, He clarified that this worship was not of His perishable body but of His true, eternal nature. As explained in Chapter 3, Baba described His true self as the imperishable Brahman, which is the proper object of worship. He explained His omnipresence using the concept of 'Ashtadha-prakriti' or the eightfold nature, stating that He is present in everything in the universe, both moving and unmoving, that has a name or form. He equated Himself with the Self that is everywhere, making worldly desires dissolve once this essence is understood.
