What is the fundamental nature of Sai as described at the beginning of Chapter 28?

The opening verses of Chapter 28 present a profound and all-encompassing view of Sai's nature. It states unequivocally that "Sai is not separate from anyone; Sai dwells in all beings." This universal presence is emphasized by the line that He pervades all of creation, "From Brahma to the ant and the smallest insect." The text further defines Him as a Sadguru by noting He is complete in Shabda-Brahma (the divine word) and simultaneously shows the signs of Para-Brahman (the Supreme Being), making him a master of both spiritual knowledge and its practical impartation.
