While the text highlights the divine inspiration of the Uddhava Gita, stating that God manifests in it, it does not claim it was singularly the most important text for Baba. In fact, Chapter 18 clarifies that the Bhagavad Gita and the Bhagavat were considered the two main books. It also mentions that Baba had devotees like Bapusaheb Jog read both the Jnaneshwari (a commentary on the Gita) and the Nath Bhagawat daily in Shirdi. This shows that Baba valued multiple sacred texts for the spiritual development of his devotees, rather than elevating one exclusively over all others.
Why did Baba consider the Uddhava Gita more important than any other text, including the Bhagavad Gita?
