What was the deeper spiritual teaching Sai Baba gave Cholkar after the incident with the sugary tea?

Using the incident with the sugary tea as a foundation, Sai Baba imparted a profound spiritual lesson about His omnipresence. In Chapter 15, Baba explains that Cholkar's vow and long penance, though kept secret, were fully known to Him. He taught that even if a devotee is 'beyond the seven seas,' He is always with them, residing in their heart as their inner self. Baba declared, 'I am indeed with you; My home is in your heart.' He expanded on this by stating He exists in all beings—insects, ants, birds, and animals—and urged Cholkar to bow to the inner self in all beings, as it is Baba alone who acts within them.
