According to Chapter 26, what is the role of the Guru in achieving spiritual knowledge?

In Chapter 26, the Guru is depicted as the sole facilitator of true spiritual knowledge. The text explicitly states that in the world, only the Guru is capable of granting the knowledge of Truth to a disciple. This occurs when the time for awakening through the Guru's word arrives, which dissolves the illusory nature of the world. The author prays to Baba to instill the ability to discriminate between the eternal and the temporary and to have unshakeable faith in the Guru's words. As highlighted in Chapter 26, true knowledge must be made meaningful through personal experience, which only the Guru's grace can provide, as intellectual understanding alone is insufficient.
