The initial verses of Chapter 16 describe the state of Brahma-jnana, or Self-realization, by portraying Sai Baba as the embodiment of this ultimate reality. He is called the "Idol seated on the throne of peace" and the "Lord of the Empire of Self-Bliss." This state is characterized by natural non-duality, where Self-experience and immediate realization fan Him respectfully. The text further explains that His court's canopy is "Pure Consciousness" and that His ministers include Self-investigation and Realization, all pointing to the supreme spiritual state He represents.
