The text mentions Sai Baba's method of washing was 'worth seeing.' What was so significant about it?

The significance of Sai Baba's washing method lay in its gentleness and the spiritual principle it represented. Chapter 0 describes how he would use plenty of water to clean his hands, feet, face, and ears, but did so very gently. This physical gentleness is explicitly linked to a deeper spiritual state, quoting Shri Eknath Maharaj: 'he rubs the whole body gently... he brings no ego for fear of harming living beings.' This implies that Baba's simple act of washing was a manifestation of his non-egoic state and his profound respect for all forms of life, which he was careful not to harm even unintentionally.
