The author of the Sai Satcharita explicitly states the intended effects of the stories in Chapter 32. The narration is described as being 'sweeter than nectar' and is expected to generate devotion and love within the listeners, ultimately causing their sorrow to come to an end. The words spoken directly from Sai Baba's mouth are presented as being particularly powerful, capable of destroying sins and afflictions in the same way that the sight of the Ganga river or the moon is believed to do. The ultimate goal, as expressed in Chapter 32, is to fulfill the desires of those eager to hear and to bring complete joy to both the speaker and the listener.
