The introduction to Chapter 36 serves to establish a devotional atmosphere and underscore the significance of Sai Baba's life stories. As detailed in this chapter, it transitions from the previous chapter's story by promising another that is like "the very water of self-bliss." Its main purpose is to extol the virtues of listening to these stories for spiritual welfare. The introduction also elaborates on the infinite greatness and divine nature of Sai Baba himself, describing his power, his detachment, and his love for his devotees. It concludes by introducing the next narrative, concerning two gentlemen from Goa who came for his darshan.
