What are some of the key metaphors or analogies used in Chapter 21 of the Sai Satcharitra?

πŸ“– Chapter 21

Chapter 21 utilizes several vivid analogies to convey its spiritual teachings. To describe the deceptive nature of a high-status but difficult job, the post of a Mamlatdar is likened to "a hill that looks beautiful from afar, but is surrounded by thorny bushes (Kajari trees) when one goes near." A more profound analogy is used to explain the interconnectedness of Saints: they are compared to officers appointed by a "sovereign King" to manage outposts in various places. In this metaphor, the "Emperor of Self-bliss" (God) drives the chariot of His kingdom by invisibly pulling the strings through these Saints who appear in different locations.
