How does Chapter 42 explain the spiritual benefits of hearing the Guru's stories before it describes Baba leaving his body?

Before delving into the account of Baba's passing, Chapter 42 emphasizes the profound spiritual gains available to devotees. It posits that through the Guru's grace, the distress of worldly existence is removed and the path to ultimate liberation opens. The chapter states that by constantly remembering the Sadguru's feet, the very nature of obstacles dissolves and sorrows are forgotten. It explicitly encourages listeners to hear the stories of this Capable One (Samartha) for their own benefit, asserting that by doing so, "in truth, great holiness will be attained," thereby setting a reverent and purposeful tone for the difficult narration to follow.
