According to Chapter 16, how should a disciple behave when making an offering to the Guru, and what happens if their attitude is wrong?

📖 Chapter 16

Chapter 16 provides clear guidance on a disciple's conduct. It explains that the Sadguru, being an ocean of Truth, Consciousness, and Bliss, doesn't care for mere outward rituals. However, if a simple leaf or flower is offered with sincere faith, He accepts it with great love and enjoys it with deep satisfaction. Conversely, the chapter warns that if the same offering is made with pride, the Guru will turn His face away immediately. It further cautions that any "cleverness" or neglect in service will lead the seeker into trouble, underscoring the absolute necessity of humility and firm faith.
