Who were the listeners that Baba directed to the scriptural readings, and what was their experience?

The listeners were the many devotees who came to meet Sai Baba at the Masjid. Chapter 18 explains that Baba, out of a desire for their welfare, would often send them to Sathe’s Wada to listen to the daily readings conducted by Sakharam Hari Jog. A remarkable experience for these listeners was the profound confirmation they received. Baba would sometimes tell a short story, and upon sending the devotee to the reading, the listener would discover that the exact same story was being read from the Jnaneshwari or Eknath's Bhagawat. This created a sense of wonder, making it seem as if the sacred texts were a direct translation of Baba's own words.
