What kind of people came to see Sai Baba, and how did he influence them?

As described in Chapter 14, a diverse range of people approached Sai Baba with varied intentions. Some were genuinely devout, while others came to test him, demanding that he prove his sainthood by revealing what was in their minds. Many came with worldly requests, praying for things like long life, wealth, property, and sons. The text emphasizes Baba's 'profound style,' noting that his influence was so powerful that even individuals who came to mock him would have their 'bad intellect burnt away' and would end up becoming devoted at his feet. If not that, they would at least feel repentance and gain a firm spiritual experience.
