How do one's underlying intentions affect the outcome of performing Guru service like studying sacred texts?

The intention behind Guru service significantly impacts its results. Chapter 0 describes two distinct motivations for using knowledge texts and Guru biographies: 'Kamya' (with desire) and 'Nishkam' (with a selfless mind). Kamya service is performed with a specific goal in mind, such as achieving worldly prosperity or seeking relief from worries, calamities, distress, and diseases. In contrast, Nishkam service is done selflessly, with the sole aim of attaining liberation from the world and the cycle of birth and death. The text clearly states that Nishkam Guru service, regardless of its form, is always considered superior in its spiritual value and outcome.
