The text says Sai is 'indifferent to the "I am He" (So-ham) attitude'. Doesn't this suggest he rejects a key principle of non-dualism?

Chapter 36 presents a nuanced perspective on Sai Baba's spiritual state. When it states he is "indifferent to the 'I am He' (So-ham) attitude," it does not necessarily imply a rejection of this philosophical truth. Rather, it suggests he has transcended the need for such an assertion, which can sometimes be a manifestation of ego. The passage immediately clarifies that "he delights in the service of those liberated in Brahman," highlighting a path focused on devotional service and humility over the intellectual proclamation of one's own divine identity. This portrays him not as someone who refutes a concept, but as one who embodies its ultimate realization through selfless action and love.
