Describe the nature of the love and devotion between Baba and his Guru as detailed in the text.

Chapter 19 provides a deeply personal account of the love between Baba and his Guru. Baba describes his Guru as a 'veritable idol of devotion and love' whose heart was full of immense affection. For twelve years, Baba stayed at his Guru's feet, being raised 'from a small child to an adult' with abundant care. The devotion was reciprocal and all-consuming. Baba recounts, '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 his only meditation and goal, showing a relationship built on profound connection and focused attention rather than formal teaching.
