The incident reveals profound truths about Sai Baba's divine nature. According to chapter 48 of the Shri Sai Satcharitra, this miracle made Sapatnekar realize that Baba was a "great knower of the inner self" to whom everything was as clear as a "gooseberry in the palm of the hand." The text explains this by stating that Baba is the form of Brahman and has manifested as the entire universe. For him, there is no distinction of "mine" and "thine" because he is merged with the Supreme Being, transcending the language of duality. The event was not just a display of power but a lesson in the non-dual, all-encompassing nature of Sai.
