Sai Baba strongly encouraged the reading of divinely inspired books for the spiritual salvation of his followers. Specifically, he instructed them to read Jnandeva's Bhavartha Deepika, also known as Jnaneshwari, and the Nath Bhagawat, which is the eleventh Skandha of the Bhagavat. As detailed in Chapter 18, this important daily assignment was given to Sakharam Hari Jog, who would conduct the readings in Sathe’s Wada. Baba considered this practice so vital that he would often send devotees who came to see him directly to the Wada to listen to these sacred recitations.
