The beginning of Chapter 11 of the Sai Satcharitra sets the stage by recalling some of Sai Baba's unique characteristics and divine plays, or 'leelas'. One of the most intriguing leelas mentioned is his habit of sleeping on a narrow wooden plank and his inscrutable, seemingly invisible methods for getting on and off it. This is presented as a divine mystery. Furthermore, the chapter highlights a core tenet of his teachings: his impartiality and equal treatment of all people. The text explicitly states that Baba treated both Hindus and Muslims as equals, underscoring his universal love and acceptance, which was a fundamental aspect of life in Shirdi during his time.
