According to Chapter 17, Baba's constant advice to his devotees was, "Do not worry in the least; always be full of joy; do not worry until death." This teaching is presented as a practical translation of a profound spiritual truth found in the Taittiriya Shruti, which states, "Brahman is bliss." By advising followers to be perpetually joyful, Baba was essentially guiding them to experience and embody the blissful nature of Brahman, which the chapter describes as the ultimate principle and a boat to cross the ocean of existence.
