Based on this chapter, what is Sai Baba's attitude towards offerings and rituals performed by his devotees?

๐Ÿ“– Chapter 16

According to Chapter 16, the Sadguru is 'Aptakama,' meaning his desires are already fulfilled, so he doesn't personally need anything from a disciple. However, he accepts service to help the disciple become desireless. The chapter emphasizes that the sincerity behind an offering is paramount. Baba is said to accept even a simple leaf or flower with great love if offered with faith, but will turn away from anything offered with pride. While he is described as an "ocean of Truth, Consciousness, and Bliss" who has no regard for mere outward rituals, he still enjoys them with deep satisfaction when they are performed with genuine and sincere faith.
