What is the Satcharitra's perspective on Sai Baba's death? Did he truly die like a normal person?

According to Chapter 43, the concept of death as a separation of body and senses does not apply to Sai Baba. The text posits that for saints, death is an illusion, like a defect of vision. Sai Samarth, being a mass of bliss and the complete Supreme Brahman, is devoid of bodily impulses and could not experience death. It is explained that he could die at will, and what appeared as death was actually him burning his body in the fire of Yoga and merging himself into the unmanifest state. The text firmly states that his body cannot be said to have perished, as he remains imprinted in the hearts of his devotees.
