What are the spiritual benefits of engaging with stories about saints like Sai Baba, as described in Chapter 28?

As described in Chapter 28, there are significant spiritual benefits to engaging with the stories of saints. The text explicitly states that listening to and singing these sacred narratives allows both the listener and the singer to attain "imperishable happiness." It also promises that sins acquired from listening to slander will be destroyed. On a deeper level, the chapter explains that when the accumulated good karma of many births rises, one attains the company of saints. This holy association ignites the fire of discrimination, fosters detachment from worldly enjoyments, and ultimately makes one's life successful.
