The scriptures mention that Sai Baba was 'formless and changeless' despite having a physical body. Can you elaborate on this paradoxical concept?

This paradox is central to understanding Sai Baba's enlightened state as described in Chapter 11. Although he had a physical form and resided in Shirdi, his true nature was that of pure consciousness, which is inherently formless and unchanging. The text states he was 'unattached and liberated within, even while moving in the worldly life.' This means his inner reality was one of constant immersion in the Self, a state described as the 'image of Existence-Consciousness-Bliss.' So, while devotees perceived a physical form, his essential being was the 'living deity of Brahman,' eternally free and full of bliss, which is why Chapter 11 can claim there is no death for Baba, who is eternally pure and enlightened.
