What does Chapter 8 of the Sai Satcharitra say about the true purpose of human life versus just existing?

Chapter 8 presents a profound philosophical view on human existence. It argues that the true duty and success of human birth is the attainment of the Supreme Self, or Paramatman. The text strongly critiques a life focused solely on basic survival needs like eating, sleeping, fear, and mating. As explained in Chapter 8, if these are the only ends, then a human life is useless and no different from that of animals like dogs and pigs, which also fill their bellies and reproduce. A true human is described as free and independent, and their ultimate success is the realization of the Eternal.
