Chapter 12 explains that while a divine incarnation is for protecting the virtuous and destroying the wicked, saints are uniquely distinct. According to this chapter, saints consider the virtuous and the wicked to be equal, with no sense of who is great or small. The text posits that saints are greater than God because they first try to set the wicked on the right path, their hearts overflowing with compassion for the distressed. They are described metaphorically as the "sun for the darkness of ignorance" and are considered inseparable from the Supreme Soul, as detailed in the teachings of Chapter 12.
