To build a community around Sai, we must first understand his character. How is Sai Baba's nature and conduct described in the teachings?

Chapter 37 of the Shri Sai Satcharitra provides a profound description of Sai Baba's character, which is essential for anyone wishing to follow his teachings. His actions are described as incomprehensible and marvelous, often leaving observers amazed. He could be intoxicated with the bliss of the Self (Brahmananda) or completely detached while performing actions. He treated all men as brothers and women as his sisters or mothers, living as a celibate known to all. This chapter portrays him as an unpredictable, profound figure, sometimes pleasant like the ocean yet difficult to fathom, and emphasizes that trying to find the cause behind his actions often leads to quiet amazement rather than a simple explanation.
