Why does the text emphasize listening to and sharing the stories of Sai's life?

Chapter 17 explains that listening to and sharing the stories from the Guru's mouth serves a profound spiritual purpose. It is stated that by listening to Sai's life story with great respect, "the poverty of the listener and the speaker is destroyed, and the bad days of all vanish." These stories, which recount Baba's extraordinary and unfathomable deeds, provide comfort and inspire humility. The text frames this opportunity as a "free gift" of happiness that one should embrace with a broad mind, rather than throwing it away.
