What specific lesson did Sai Baba impart to the lady who offered her bread to a dog and a pig?

๐Ÿ“– Chapter 9

In a profound teaching described in Chapter 9, Sai Baba taught a lady the importance of seeing the divine in all creatures. After she gave bread to a hungry dog and a pig, Baba revealed that he had received the food, as he is one with them. He told her, "Sometimes I am a dog, sometimes a pig; sometimes I am a cow, sometimes a cat... in such forms I roam." The core lesson was to abandon the "sense of difference" and to worship him by serving all beings. He emphasized this by saying, "Give bread to the hungry first. Afterward, eat for your own stomach; keep this well in your heart." This transformed her simple act of charity into an act of direct worship.
