Chapter 48 provides a profound insight into the selfless nature of a true Sadguru's relationship with their disciples. The text explicitly states that a Sadguru is one 'who never even dreams of receiving service from a disciple, but instead wishes to sacrifice his own body for the sake of the disciple.' This illustrates a complete reversal of worldly expectations. Furthermore, a Sadguru is free from the ego of thinking they are superior, instead considering the disciple as the Supreme Brahman and showing fatherly love. As Chapter 48 explains, they do not desire their own livelihood from the disciple, making their guidance entirely selfless and pure.
Based on Chapter 48, what is the ideal attitude of a Sadguru towards their disciples and service?
