How does Chapter 28 explain the unique role of a Sadguru compared to a worldly father?

📖 Chapter 28

According to Chapter 28, the role of a Sadguru is profoundly different from and more compassionate than that of a father. The text states that a father gives birth to the physical body, a body that is inevitably subject to death. In contrast, the Guru's compassion is described as 'additional' because the Guru's function is to remove the very cycle of birth and death for the disciple. While a father is responsible for one's physical existence, the Sadguru is responsible for one's spiritual liberation, guiding the soul beyond the mortal coil, a concept explicitly laid out in the beginning of this chapter.
