Can you describe the form of internal worship (Manas Puja) that is mentioned in Chapter 26?

๐Ÿ“– Chapter 26

Chapter 26 describes a form of internal worship that it deems superior to external rituals. In this practice, the devotee uses pure emotions and faith as offerings. As detailed in the chapter, the devotee imagines washing the Guru's feet with 'warm tears of joy' and applying the 'sandalwood paste of pure love.' The clothing offered is 'true faith,' and the primary offering is the 'eight-petaled lotus of the eight-fold sattvic emotions,' presented with a focused mind. Chapter 26 explains that this internal ritual is the way to truly please the Guru and achieve the ultimate fruit of life.
