Chapter 37 describes Sai Baba's state as unpredictable, noting He was "Sometimes intoxicated with Brahmananda (the bliss of the Self); sometimes satisfied with Self-knowledge. Sometimes performing everything while remaining detached." This teaches us to value the inner state of Self-realization above all else. The chapter further observes that those who tried to analyze the cause behind His actions would "eventually become exhausted and sit quietly in amazement." This serves as a lesson in humility and faith. As devotees, we learn from Chapter 37 that we should not get caught up in judging or over-analyzing the actions of a perfect master, but instead cultivate a sense of awe, reverence, and focus on our own spiritual development with unwavering devotion.
The text describes Sai's actions as 'incomprehensible and marvelous'. How can we learn from His detached and unpredictable nature?
