In Chapter 9 of the Sai Satcharitra, a profound spiritual concept is presented regarding Sai Baba's nature. The text explains that Baba's practice of begging for food, which he followed until the end of his life, was not for himself but for the welfare of his devotees and the removal of their sins. This act is linked to the broader teaching that Sai is pervaded everywhere, from Brahma to the smallest inanimate object. By this practice and teaching, Baba mercifully impresses upon us the truth that God resides in all beings. Therefore, his begging was a daily demonstration of humility and a lesson for devotees to recognize the divine in all.
