Why does Sai Baba sometimes create obstacles for his followers, and what power does remembering his name hold during these times?

Chapter 29 reveals that Sai Baba himself creates obstacles and difficulties on the path of his devotees. This is not done to cause harm, but for a higher spiritual purpose. The text states, 'This is the purpose of these obstacles.' By introducing challenges, Sai ensures that his followers will remember him. It is through this continuous remembrance of Sai that difficulties are calmed and overcome. The chapter emphasizes that there is a 'tremendous power' in the Name, which causes all calamities to become 'broken into pieces' when a devotee faces them head-on with faith.
