What does the Shri Sai Satcharitra say are the two essential Marathi-termed principles for attaining spiritual goals?

The Shri Sai Satcharitra emphasizes two principles as absolutely critical for spiritual attainment. In Chapter 2, the author, Hemadpant, reflects on his own journey and the lessons learned. He concludes with a firm scriptural truth that "Without faith (Shraddha) and patience (Saburi), Not a bit of the spiritual goal is achieved." This statement highlights that these two qualities, Shraddha and Saburi, are not merely helpful but are the fundamental prerequisites for making any progress on the spiritual path. The text presents this lesson after discussing the futility of debating and the need for a Guru, framing faith and patience as the correct path forward.
