What metaphors are used in Chapter 47 to describe the greatness of Sai Baba and his stories?

📖 Chapter 47

Chapter 47 employs rich and powerful metaphors to convey the supreme nature of Sai Baba and his teachings. His grace is compared to the sun, in whose light the "firefly of worldly existence" loses its luster. The chapter also uses the analogy of the River Ganges, which, despite purifying the world, desires the dust from a saint's feet for its own purification. As described in Chapter 47, the collection of Sai's stories is likened to a vast ocean, and seeking them is like sitting under a Kalpataru, or a wish-fulfilling tree, where desires are instantly met. This imagery emphasizes the boundless grace, purifying power, and abundant wisdom available to devotees through Sai's stories.
