Chapter 16 presents a nuanced view of the Sadguru's teaching methodology. It explains that although the Sadguru is 'Aptakama' (one whose desires are fulfilled), he engages with disciples by fulfilling their desire to serve Him, which in turn makes the disciple desireless. This is a key part of his method. Furthermore, the chapter describes a fascinating paradox where the Guru, who is an 'ocean of Truth, Consciousness, and Bliss,' will metaphorically don a 'cloak of ignorance' in order to impart knowledge to the ignorant. This allows Him to give sweet instruction and connect with devotees without transgressing the boundaries of conduct, meeting them at their own level of understanding.
