Based on the text, Chapter 18 describes the experience of approaching the Sadguru using a powerful metaphor. It compares a devotee approaching the Guru to a salt doll entering the ocean to take a bath. Just as the doll dissolves and becomes one with the ocean, unable to return in its original form, a person who approaches the Sadguru merges with them. The chapter explains that 'similar is the case with one who approaches You,' referring to the Guru. This illustrates a complete surrender and merging of the individual self into the greater consciousness of the Guru.
