Sai Baba placed great importance on the reading of sacred texts for the spiritual upliftment of his followers. As detailed in Chapter 18, the primary books he encouraged were the Bhagavad Gita and the Nath Bhagawat, which includes the profound dialogue between Krishna and Uddhava. Another key text was Jnandeva's Bhavartha Deepika, also known as Jnaneshwari. Baba specifically assigned the daily duty of reading these scriptures aloud to his devoted disciple, Sakharam Hari Jog (Bapusaheb Jog). This reading took place in Sathe's Wada, providing a consistent spiritual opportunity for all devotees who came to listen.
