The texts describe a remarkable event that occurred 32 years before Sai Baba's final passing. As detailed in Chapter 44, Baba once drew his life force into the crown of his head for a period of three days. During this time, his breath ceased, leading everyone to believe he had died and to begin discussions about his final rites. However, Baba was described as being "extremely alert within" and suddenly returned to his body, dispelling everyone's anxiety. This incident demonstrated his extraordinary control, leading followers to believe he had "authority even over Time (Death)," making them question whether his final departure was a willed Samadhi or a conventional death.
The source mentions Sai Baba performed a specific practice for three days where people thought he had died. Can you describe this event and how it relates to his control over life and death?
