What spiritual or personal benefits are said to come from listening to Sai Baba's stories?

According to Chapter 2, listening to Sai Baba's stories yields numerous profound benefits. These stories provide peace from worldly troubles, give listeners enthusiasm, and grant steadiness of mind to devotees. Hearing them with attention can make other pleasures seem insignificant, causing hunger and thirst to vanish while bringing inner satisfaction. The text claims that for those who listen, the stories break all bonds of karma, illuminate the intellect, and give pure happiness. Furthermore, aspirational goals such as the desire for liberation, mastery of Yoga, or the bliss of Samadhi can be achieved by listening to these narratives with respect and faith.
