What does the preface to the Shri Sai Satcharita say about the ultimate destiny of a devotee who engages deeply with the text?

The preface in Chapter 0 explains that the Shri Sai Satcharita is a 'sweet, spiritual treat' for seekers. If devotees personally consume this treat with sincere faith and heart, they perform a 'Jnana-yagna,' or a sacrifice of knowledge. This act pleases the divine. The text promises a profound ultimate destiny for such a devotee: 'after the death of the body, they will undoubtedly become one with the six-fold glorious Shri Sai-Paramatma.' This promise is reinforced with verses from the Dnyaneshwari, which state that by offering the ego's ignorance, one satisfies the Supreme Soul and becomes one with Him.
