Based on the provided text, what is the proper way to approach a Guru like Sai Baba, and what is discouraged?

๐Ÿ“– Chapter 35

Chapter 35 provides guidance on the proper disposition when approaching a spiritual master. The text explicitly states, "It is not good to go empty-handed to the door of God, a priest, or a Guru," which is why Kaka bought grapes as an offering. More importantly, the narrative discourages approaching with a skeptical or analytical mind, which the text calls "clinical scrutiny." The story of Boss Dharamsee illustrates that trying to analyze or understand Baba's ways can lead to inner turmoil. Instead, the text suggests that the path to happiness is through surrender and humility, advising that by "Becoming egoless and rolling at his feet, you will enjoy the festival of happiness."
