What specific sacred books did Sai Baba encourage his devotees to read in Shirdi, and who was tasked with leading the readings?

📖 Chapter 18

Sai Baba placed great importance on the reading of specific divinely inspired books for the salvation of souls. As detailed in Chapter 18, the two main texts were the Bhagavad Gita, specifically the commentary known as Jnaneshwari or Bhavartha Deepika, and the Nath Bhagawat, which is the eleventh Skandha of the Bhagavat. Baba considered the latter, a dialogue between Krishna and Uddhava, to be even better than the dialogue between Krishna and Arjuna. He assigned the daily reading of these books to his devoted disciple Bapusaheb Jog, who would conduct the Parayana with explanations in Sathe's Wada for the benefit of all devotees.
