What does Chapter 5 say about Sai Baba's attitude towards Guruship, particularly in the context of the story involving Devidas and the Fakir?

๐Ÿ“– Chapter 5

Chapter 5 provides a profound lesson on the nature of Guruship and discipleship through the actions of Sai Baba. The chapter recounts a story where a Fakir, who was defeated in a debate by another wise man, Devidas, initially considered himself Sai Baba's Guru. However, after years of delusion, he returned and bowed to Sainath. Throughout this, Baba maintained the humble attitude of a disciple, illustrating the principle "His Guruship to him, and my discipleship to me." As the text explains, this behavior teaches that one must become someone's disciple to progress spiritually, a lesson Sainath himself practiced to show the importance of setting aside pride.
