Since Sai Baba's physical form is gone, how does Chapter 45 explain His continued presence and ability to guide devotees?

Chapter 45 addresses this very question by explaining that Sai's departure was only of the physical body. It clarifies that Sai is beyond birth and death, remaining in the Unmanifest just as He was before. Before His passing, He established His own form in the hearts of His devotees through meditation, creating an internal connection. As detailed in Chapter 45, His literary form—the Shri Sai Satcharitra itself—now serves as a perpetual source of remembrance. By listening to these stories, a devotee's mind can attain a unique and indescribable peace, ensuring that His guidance and grace continue to flow to those who seek Him with a concentrated heart.
