Can you describe what Baba's relationship with his own Guru was like based on his stories?

Chapter 19 provides a deeply personal account of Sai Baba's relationship with his Guru. Baba describes serving his Guru, an "ocean of mercy," for twelve years. This service was characterized by intense, loving devotion rather than mere physical labor. Baba states, "I would gaze at my Guru's face with love day and night; I felt neither hunger nor thirst; without the Guru, my mind was restless." This constant, loving contemplation was all his Guru expected. In return, the Guru provided for all his needs and offered constant protection with his "merciful glance," demonstrating a profound bond of love and spiritual connection that transcended physical presence.
