What is Sai Baba's perspective on how we should treat others, and why does it matter to him personally?

Sai Baba emphasizes that he is present within all beings, making our interactions with others a direct interaction with him. According to Chapter 44, he stated that if someone speaks sarcastically or uses harsh words with another person, it pierces his very heart and causes him immediate pain. He explicitly says, "He has touched my very vital point; know that it has pierced my heart." Conversely, Baba is greatly pleased by those who endure harshness with patience. This teaching underscores that Sai is filled inside and outside of all beings, and love is his only liking.
