Chapter 27 explains that the entanglement of Maya, with its focus on "I" and "mine" such as one's body, home, and family, is ultimately a transient illusion, like a shadow at noon. To avoid being obstructed by this illusion, the text advises that one must surrender to Sai with singular devotion. The Vedas and Shastras have struggled to find an end to Maya, but the path shown by the Guru simplifies this. By holding firmly to the feet of the Sadguru, a devotee can transcend this illusion. As mentioned in this chapter, only the one who, through the Guru's guidance, learns to see God in all beings will surely be saved from the snares of Maya.
The world is described as "momentary Maya." How does surrendering to a Sadguru like Sai help one navigate or overcome this illusion?
