What was Sai Baba's perspective on worldly life, pleasure, and pain?

According to Chapter 10, Sai Baba viewed worldly life as an illusion, much like the wealth of a kingdom in a dream is useless upon waking. His principle of worldly existence was that the pleasures and pains of the body are ultimately false. He believed in dispelling this "dream-delusion" through self-contemplation to achieve liberation. This perspective stemmed from his own state of being an embodiment of eternal bliss, with a mind in the unwavering state of 'Nirvikalpa'. His concern was to help his disciples attain a state beyond the body, free from its illusory bondage.
