According to Chapter 16, what is the correct way for a disciple to behave, and what are the potential dangers they should avoid?

Chapter 16 of the Sai Satcharitra provides clear instructions on a disciple's conduct. The most important action is to simply surrender oneself completely to the Sadguru, as the Guru knows the disciple's pitfalls and provides remedies. The chapter explicitly warns against using 'cleverness' (Chaturai) or showing even slight neglect in service, as these behaviors will lead a seeker into trouble. It stresses the necessity of having firm faith at the Guru's feet. Offerings, such as a leaf or flower, must be made with sincere faith and love, because the Guru rejects anything offered with pride. Ultimately, the chapter teaches that humble service to the Guru is the only path to attaining union with Brahman (Sayujya), as all other means will fail.
