Since Baba was against fasting, did he believe in eating without limits?

📖 Chapter 32

No, Sai Baba advocated for balance and moderation in all things, including eating. While he was strongly against fasting, viewing it as a cause of continuous discomfort, he also explicitly taught that 'Excessive eating is also not beneficial.' As detailed in Chapter 32, his core principle was that 'Moderate eating is truly comfortable.' This indicates that his guidance was not about indulgence but about maintaining the body in a state of comfort and sufficient strength to pursue spiritual goals. He saw both extremes—fasting and overeating—as hindrances, with moderation being the key to both physical well-being and spiritual capacity.
