Based on Chapter 16, what is the Sadguru's nature regarding desires and the offerings of devotees?

📖 Chapter 16

Chapter 16 explains that a Sadguru is always 'Aptakama,' meaning one whose desires are already fulfilled. Therefore, a disciple cannot fulfill any want for Him. Instead, the Sadguru fulfills the disciple's own desire for service, guiding them towards becoming desireless. The chapter illustrates this by stating that He accepts a simple leaf or flower offered with genuine faith but rejects offerings made with pride. He is described as an ocean of Truth, Consciousness, and Bliss who has little regard for outward rituals unless they are performed with sincere faith, which He then enjoys with deep satisfaction.
