What is the significance of Das Ganu's story in Chapter 22?

The story of Das Ganu in Chapter 22 holds deep significance, illustrating the omnipotence of the Sadguru and the holiness of his very being. When Das Ganu expressed a desire to go on a pilgrimage to bathe in the holy waters of Prayag, Sai Baba told him there was no need to travel. As detailed in the chapter, Baba declared, 'Know this big toe of Mine to be Prayag; bathe right here.' This statement emphasizes that the Guru's feet are the ultimate pilgrimage site. The story culminates in a miracle: when Das Ganu obediently placed his head on Baba's feet, the waters of both the Ganga and Yamuna rivers manifested from Baba's big toe. This event serves as a powerful testament to the idea that the Sadguru embodies all sacred places and that true devotion at his feet can grant the merit of all pilgrimages.
