What does the Sai Satcharitra say about the power and purpose of listening to Sai Baba's stories?

According to Chapter 36 of the Shri Sai Satcharitra, listening to Sai's stories is a profound spiritual practice. The text describes these narratives not merely as stories, but as the "very water of self-bliss," which paradoxically increases the listener's thirst for devotion. It is stated that for any soul seeking their own spiritual welfare, respectfully listening to these narrations can remove the fatigue and misery of worldly existence, leading to a state of happiness. Furthermore, the chapter explains that Sai Baba himself loves his own stories and uses the listener and speaker as a pretext to fulfill the desires of his devotees, making the act of listening a direct way to receive his grace.
