Parayans and Saptahs, which are devotional readings of sacred texts, play a crucial role in fostering devotion. As explained in Chapter 0, by studying and performing Parayans of a detailed poetic Guru biography, a writer performs Guru service. When other devotees also engage in these studies and readings, the writer gains the merit of serving God in humanity and public service. This shared practice not only helps individual devotees achieve the purpose of their lives but also builds a strong community centered on the Guru's teachings, as seen with the Shri Sai Satcharita.
