The text talks about the Guru being eternal. How does it reconcile this with the passing of Sai's physical body?

Chapter 45 addresses this by explaining that when Sai Baba's physical body passed away, the form was gone, but He remained in the Unmanifest, just as He was before. His stories and miracles, or Leelas, continued infinitely even after his departure from the physical form. This illustrates that the Guru's presence is not confined to the body. The text further clarifies this concept by stating, "Brahman is eternal, the world is transient; the Guru alone is the true Brahman." By identifying the Sadguru as a solid mass of Brahman-consciousness, it posits that the Guru is one with the eternal, unchanging reality, which transcends the temporary nature of the physical world and the body.
