Chapter 50 concludes with a powerful prayer that clarifies the devotees' ultimate spiritual goal. The text explicitly states that they have no desire for the "four types of liberation like Salokata." Instead of these traditional forms of freedom from bondage (moksha), they pray for what they consider the "supreme attainment": to have steady and firm devotion to Sai Baba. As Chapter 50 explains, the devotees feel, "We were never bound in the first place; what connection do we have with liberation?" This reveals their preference for the path of loving devotion (bhakti), seeing a pure heart dedicated to the Saint as more valuable than an abstract concept of release.
What kind of 'liberation' do the devotees ask for in Chapter 50, and what do they reject?
