Chapter 38 of the Sai Satcharitra places immense importance on the act of donating food, or Annadan. The text explains that while different virtues are prescribed for different ages, charity is the primary virtue for the current Kali age. It goes on to state that among all charitable acts, food donation is the foremost and the highest secret for quenching hunger. The chapter emphasizes that food is the very form of Para-Brahman (the Supreme Reality), from which all beings are born and by which they are sustained. It is taught that a householder should satisfy any guest with food, regardless of when they arrive, and that Sai Baba himself followed this practice of feeding people.
