The Satcharitra says Baba's body was just an 'adjunct'. What does this mean for his experience of illness or physical limitations?

๐Ÿ“– Chapter 43

As described in Chapter 43, calling Sai Baba's body an 'adjunct' means it was merely a temporary vessel for his divine consciousness. He was 'devoid of bodily impulses' and not truly subject to mental or physical illness in the way humans are. The text suggests that even if any ailments appeared due to past karma, he would have had no awareness of them. This concept is further elaborated by stating that it is improper to think of him as being limited by a specific form, as his true self is not confined to the 'three and a half cubits' of his physical body. His true nature is one of 'unbroken prosperity,' far beyond the reach of physical decay or limitation.
