How does Chapter 16 of the Sai Satcharitra describe the nature of a Sadguru and the offerings made to him?

📖 Chapter 16

Chapter 16 explains that a Sadguru is 'Aptakama,' meaning his desires are already fulfilled, yet he accepts a disciple's desire for service to make them desireless. The chapter emphasizes the importance of faith, stating that if a leaf or flower is offered with sincere faith, the Sadguru accepts it with great love. However, if the same offering is made with pride, he will turn away. This is because he is an ocean of Truth, Consciousness, and Bliss, and he values sincere faith over mere outward rituals, enjoying them with deep satisfaction when done with genuine devotion.
