According to Chapter 2, engaging with the stories of saints offers significant spiritual benefits. The author first notes that listening to the unfathomable divine plays (leelas) of Sai brings great joy, a joy so profound it inspired the book itself. He further explains that these life stories are guides to the righteous path, are instructive to devotees, and possess the power to destroy sins. Ultimately, he states that this "sacrificial session of storytelling" has been undertaken to provide happiness for the listener in both this world and the next. Being engrossed in these stories is a blessing for the fortunate.
