After hearing Sai Baba recount his entire life history to a seemingly unrelated person, Sapatnekar's perception of Baba was completely transformed. He was filled with wonder and profound respect. Chapter 48 explains that Sapatnekar realized that for Baba, everything was as clear as a "gooseberry in the palm of the hand." He understood that Baba was the form of Brahman, the Supreme Being, for whom the entire universe is family. This insight taught him that for a being merged with the Supreme, distinctions like "mine" and "thine" do not exist, as he himself is the manifestation of the world and exists beyond the duality of seer and seen.
What was the deeper spiritual understanding Sapatnekar gained about Sai Baba after the incident with the Dhangar woman?
