How does Chapter 16 allegorically describe the Sadguru's divine court and spiritual state?

📖 Chapter 16

Chapter 16 begins by depicting the Sadguru as a Universal Monarch in a magnificent spiritual court. This allegory illustrates his divine nature. The text describes 'Self-experience' and 'immediate realization' as fans being waved around Him. His ministers are virtues like Detachment, Devotion, and Pure Knowledge. The canopy over this court is 'Pure Consciousness,' and the ornaments He wears are 'Peace' and 'Self-control.' As mentioned in Chapter 16, even the Vedas, Shastras, and Puranas act as bards in this assembly, highlighting the Sadguru's supreme state, which is an empire of Self-Bliss.
