What was the nature of Sai Baba's advice, and was it the kind of complex problem-solving that would be useful for a chemist facing career uncertainty?

The information available in Chapter 0 clarifies that Sai Baba's method of teaching was unique. It is noted that Maharaj did not openly explain profound Vedanta subjects or give complex discourses on the Upanishads. Instead, his advice was primarily ethical, aimed at 'purifying the disciple's ground and then sowing the seed of knowledge.' During his daily sittings, he would give advice through stories that addressed matters on the minds of the people present. The text emphasizes that more valuable than his verbal advice was the guidance received through direct experience, which brought the highest benefit to faithful devotees, suggesting a focus on moral development over specific career counseling.
