The text mentions a 'karmic bond of seventy-two generations.' How does this relate to Baba's connection with his devotees and his continued guidance after he left his body?

The connection between Sai Baba and his devotees is described as an incredibly deep and ancient one, not limited to a single lifetime. Chapter 43 refers to it as a "karmic bond of seventy-two generations," highlighting a pre-existing connection that Baba himself had described to his followers. Having established this profound "noose of love," his physical departure feels more like a temporary journey than a final goodbye. Because of this deep bond, devotees have full confidence that he will return. Chapter 43 further states that he continues to guide and reveal himself in a hidden form through visions and miracles, particularly to those who are faithful.
