Can you explain the snake and rope analogy found in Chapter 22 and what it signifies about the Sadguru?

In Chapter 22, the text uses a powerful metaphor involving a snake and a rope to explain the Sadguru's nature. It states that in dim light, a rope can be mistaken for a snake, causing fear, but in the light, its true nature as a rope is revealed. The chapter explains that the Guru, Sai Baba, is the creator of both the illusion (the 'snake-like tendency') and the one who removes it by revealing the truth (the 'form of a rope'). This analogy illustrates that the Guru is the source of both worldly illusion (maya) and the spiritual knowledge that dispels that illusion, ultimately freeing the devotee from the fear of worldly existence. He is the beginning and the end of this entire play of perception.
