In Chapter 25, the author uses a poetic metaphor to describe the devotees of Sai Baba. The 'thirsty Chakora birds' are the devotees themselves, the 'loving listeners' of Sai's stories. This comparison is part of a larger analogy where the life story of Sai is likened to a 'Moonstone (Somakant)' from which the 'lunar nectar of Sai's tales flows.' Therefore, the devotees, as Chakora birds, are meant to receive this nectar—the holy stories of Sai—and drink it to their heart's content. This act is said to bring them satisfaction and ward off the heat and suffering of worldly existence.
