What does Chapter 39 reveal about Sai Baba's characteristics and habits during his early days?

Chapter 39 provides a glimpse into Sai Baba's early life, stating that he was around eighteen years old and had a strong inclination towards solitude. It describes how he would sleep anywhere at night without any sense of fear. The reason for this fearlessness, as the chapter explains, was his profound spiritual state: "he saw the Lord everywhere." This detail underscores his constant awareness of the divine presence in all things, a key aspect of his being even from a young age. The chapter also mentions his first appearance in the Nizam State under a mango tree.
