The text says Sai Baba has 'no name or village'. Why then does it say people from Goa came to see him? Where did they go?

📖 Chapter 36

This is an excellent observation that touches on the philosophical nature of the text. Chapter 36 states that Sai Baba is one "who has no name or village," which is a reflection on his transcendent, unattached spiritual state, detached from worldly identity. However, this is a spiritual description rather than a literal one. The text also functions as a narrative of his life on Earth, where he had a physical presence. As Chapter 36 mentions, "Two gentlemen from Goa came for Sai’s darshan," which confirms that people traveled to a physical location to see him. The provided text doesn't name the village, but it implies a physical place for darshan, distinguishing his spiritual boundlessness from his earthly accessibility.
