According to Chapter 49, what qualities define a true devotee, and which traits should be avoided?

📖 Chapter 49

Based on the teachings in Chapter 49, a true devotee is characterized by a complete lack of ego and pride in one's body. The text states that one who has "complete pride in his body does not deserve the title of 'Devotee.'" Conversely, a person who is "completely devoid of ego truly possesses 'Devotee-hood.'" The chapter warns against the arrogance of knowledge, the pride of superiority, and hypocrisy. It also criticizes those who are dull-witted for not lovingly singing the fame of their own Guru, highlighting love and humility as key virtues.
