Indeed, Chapter 37 of the Shri Sai Satcharitra portrays Sai Baba's nature as profoundly complex and beyond easy description. It states his actions are 'incomprehensible and marvelous.' He is described as being in an unpredictable state: sometimes intoxicated with the bliss of the Self, other times performing all actions while remaining detached. He might appear inactive, yet his mind is always alert and fixed on Self-realization. The text compares him to the ocean, 'pleasant like the ocean, yet difficult to fathom, deep, and profound,' concluding that it is impossible to truly and accurately describe his unfathomable form.
What is Sai Baba's nature like? The Satcharitra describes him in seemingly contradictory ways.
