Chapter 52 teaches that when a devotee completely takes refuge in the Guru, the sense of duality and separation is eliminated. The chapter uses a powerful analogy to describe this state of non-duality: 'By embracing the ocean, the river forgets its river-ness.' This illustrates how the individual identity of the devotee merges into the vastness of the Guru. Similarly, Chapter 52 states that when a devotee takes refuge, 'You do not leave any sense of duality in them,' leading them mysteriously toward the supreme goal of liberation while still in the body.
Based on Chapter 52, what happens to a devotee who takes complete refuge in the Guru, and what analogy is used to describe this state?
