Chapter 22 draws a poignant parallel to illustrate how the Sadguru satisfies the spiritual yearning of his followers. The text describes the universal longing for the sight of the moon that arises after the dark night of the New Moon, when everyone fixes their gaze on the sky in anticipation. This longing is likened to the devotee's deep desire for a divine vision. According to Chapter 22, Baba fulfills this spiritual quest at his own feet. When he sits in a specific posture—with his right foot over his left knee—the sight of his foot is said to satisfy the devotee's "curiosity for a vision" just as the appearance of the crescent moon satisfies the world after a period of darkness.
Can you explain the comparison made in Chapter 22 between seeing the Sadguru's posture and the longing for the moon after the New Moon?
