Chapter 16 offers a clear and compassionate reason for the Guru's incarnation. While hailing him as the "Stainless (Niranjana), the Imperishable (Avyaya), the One beyond attributes (Gunatita), the King of Yogis," the text explicitly states that he has taken on a physical body for a selfless purpose. As Chapter 16 proclaims, "You have taken this body for the sake of helping others, to uplift the poor and lowly." This establishes that the Guru's presence in the world, despite his transcendent nature, is an act of grace aimed at aiding and elevating humanity, particularly those who are struggling or downtrodden.
