The introduction to the Shri Sai Satcharita, found in Chapter 0, is very direct about the mystery surrounding Maharaj's background. The text explicitly states that it is impossible to determine with any certainty whether Maharaj was originally a Brahmin or a Muslim by birth. It also addresses a belief held by some devotees, clarifying that it cannot be definitively said whether he was "unborn" (Ayonija). This highlights the profound enigma of his earthly presence, as even his parentage and original home remain completely unknown.
