Which sacred texts did Sai Baba encourage his devotees to read in Shirdi, and who was primarily responsible for these readings?

๐Ÿ“– Chapter 18

Sai Baba placed great importance on the reading of specific divinely inspired books for the spiritual welfare of his devotees. As detailed in Chapter 18, the two main texts were the Bhagavad Gita, specifically the commentary known as Jnaneshwari or Bhavartha Deepika by Jnandeva, and the eleventh Skandha of the Bhagavat, also referred to as the Uddhava Gita or Nath Bhagawat. Baba assigned the task of reading these scriptures to Bapusaheb Jog, who would conduct the Parayana, or devotional reading with explanations, daily in Sathe's Wada after getting permission from Baba. This opportunity was of great use to the devotees who would gather to listen.
