Chapter 43 offers great reassurance to devotees wondering about Baba's state after he left his body. It explains that he did not 'die' but, as a great Yogi, he could die at will and chose to merge himself into his 'previous unmanifest state.' He burned his body in the 'fire of Yoga' and now resides in the hearts of his devotees. The text strongly refutes the idea that he is gone, stating that the mind should not accept such talk. Even in this unmanifest state, he enjoys his true self and 'always keeps the devotees awake.' He is described as a powerful, beginningless, and endless being who now fills the entire moving and non-moving world in his true form. Therefore, devotees are assured that his influence and ability to help are as potent as ever.
What happened to Sai Baba after he left his physical form? Where did he go, and can he still help his devotees?
