The text outlines a significant two-fold benefit that arises from the creation and study of a detailed poetic Guru biography. As explained in Chapter 0, when an author writes such a work, they are performing a direct form of Guru service. At the same time, a secondary benefit is realized when other devotees study this work and perform Parayans.
