What specific spiritual outcomes are promised to individuals who listen to or read Sai Baba's stories?

Chapter 2 details several profound spiritual benefits for those who engage with Sai Baba's stories with sincerity. The text promises that "By hearing, singing, and contemplating my stories, Devotion to Me will be born and ignorance will be destroyed immediately." The key to unlocking these benefits is faith, as it is stated, "Where there is devotion with faith, I am always subservient." For the faithful listener, the reward is not just a temporary feeling but a lasting transformation. The stories are said to bring about "self-experience and self-bliss" naturally, leading to a state of true happiness. Ultimately, the goal is enlightenment, where the devotee gains knowledge of their true form and the "unperceivable, formless, and dense Consciousness will manifest."
