Since Sai Baba is no longer in his physical form, how does Chapter 46 explain his continued presence and protection for followers?

Chapter 46 provides significant reassurance about Sai Baba's continued presence. The text explicitly states that even if His form is currently invisible, the spirit residing in the Samadhi is awake and provides immediate experiences for devotees who hold faith and devotion. It emphasizes that Sai Baba's protection is not limited by physical distance. As Chapter 46 declares, for anyone Sai takes under His protection, He 'certainly resides near him twenty-four hours a day,' whether that person is at home or on a distant island. Furthermore, it mentions that wherever a devotee goes, Sai reaches there beforehand to give them an unexpected vision.
