According to the accounts in Chapter 18, Sai Baba placed great importance on the daily reading of divinely inspired books for the salvation of souls. The primary texts mentioned are Jnandeva's Bhavartha Deepika (also known as Jnaneshwari, a commentary on the Gita) and the Nath Bhagawat, which contains the Uddhava Gita. Baba assigned this sacred duty to devoted disciples like Dixit and Sakharam Hari Jog. As Chapter 18 details, Bapusaheb Jog was specifically instructed to read these books daily in Sathe's Wada, where many devotees would gather to listen and benefit from the spiritual instruction.
