Why is the Shri Sai Satcharitra compared to a 'Moonstone' in Chapter 25?

๐Ÿ“– Chapter 25

In Chapter 25, the author uses a poetic metaphor to describe the profound nature of the Shri Sai Satcharitra. It is compared to a 'Moonstone' (Somakant) from which the lunar nectar of Sai's tales is said to flow. This imagery suggests that the book is not merely a collection of words but a divine source of spiritual nourishment. Just as a Moonstone is believed to ooze nectar under the moonlight, the Satcharitra releases the sweet, life-giving essence of Sai Baba's stories for his devotees. The author hopes that devotees, like thirsty Chakora birds who are fabled to drink only moonbeams, will be satisfied to their heart's content by this nectar.
