How does Chapter 48 of the Sai Satcharitra describe the ideal attitude and relationship a Sadguru should have towards their disciples?

📖 Chapter 48

Chapter 48 outlines a profound and selfless relationship between a Sadguru and their disciple. A true Sadguru is entirely free from the ego of thinking the disciple is insignificant while the Guru is great. On the contrary, the Sadguru is a benefactor who considers the disciple to be a manifestation of the Supreme Brahman and holds a deep, fatherly love for them. This chapter emphasizes that a Sadguru does not desire their own livelihood from the disciple and, most remarkably, never even dreams of receiving service. Instead, a true Sadguru, as described in Chapter 48, wishes to sacrifice their own body for the sake of the disciple, making them the 'most superior in the world.'
