Chapter 16 clarifies that the Sadguru, being an "ocean of Truth, Consciousness, and Bliss" and one whose desires are always fulfilled (Aptakama), has little regard for mere outward rituals. However, the devotee's inner disposition is what matters most. The chapter states that if a simple leaf or flower is offered with faith, He accepts it with great love. Conversely, if the same offering is made with pride, He will turn His face away. When rituals are performed with sincere faith, He enjoys them with deep satisfaction, demonstrating that genuine devotion is valued above all else.
