Chapter 4 discusses people turning away from the 'ultimate goal'. What does it say about this, and what is the role of a saint in this context?

Chapter 4 explains that a key reason for a saint's incarnation is when people lose sight of the ultimate spiritual goal, or 'Paramartha'. This happens when they begin to consider worldly things like wealth, status, sons, and spouse as the only source of happiness and become obsessed with lust and hunger. As a result, they lose the opportunity for their own self-upliftment and well-being due to the decay of religion. In this context, as detailed in Chapter 4, saints take form specifically to awaken religion. Their purpose is to guide people away from these transient worldly pursuits and back towards the path of ultimate truth and spiritual well-being.
