The statement from Chapter 36 that Sai Baba is "indifferent to the 'I am He' (So-ham) attitude" offers a profound insight into his spiritual state. While 'So-ham' signifies the high realization of oneness with the Supreme, Sai's indifference suggests he has transcended even this state of personal identification. Instead of resting in that realization, Chapter 36 explains that he "delights in the service of those liberated in Brahman." This implies his character is defined by active, compassionate service rather than a static state of being. He remains detached from the ego of spiritual attainment, acting as a pure instrument of divine will.
