The statement in Chapter 36 that Sai is "indifferent to the 'I am He' (So-ham) attitude" reveals a spiritual state that transcends even the highest non-dual realization. While 'So-ham' signifies the enlightened understanding of oneness with the Supreme, Sai's indifference to it implies he has moved beyond the need to even assert or identify with this state. Instead of resting in that personal realization, the chapter notes that he "delights in the service of those liberated in Brahman." This shows his state is one of selfless, compassionate action. Chapter 36 further explains he stays "distant and detached from his name," reinforcing his complete lack of ego and his function as a pure, active instrument of divine grace.
