According to Chapter 16 of Sai Satcharitra, what is the proper way for a disciple to approach their Sadguru, and what should be avoided?

📖 Chapter 16

Chapter 16 explains that a disciple should approach the Sadguru with sincere faith and love. It is mentioned that if a simple leaf or flower is offered with faith, the Guru accepts it with great affection, but if the same offering is made with pride, He will turn away. The text strongly advises against using "cleverness" (Chaturai) or showing any neglect in service, as this leads the seeker into trouble. The most crucial action for a disciple is to surrender completely to the Sadguru, as the Guru understands the disciple's pitfalls and provides the necessary remedies without the disciple even knowing.
