How does the act of studying sacred texts like the Shri Sai Satcharita benefit both the individual and the wider community?

According to Chapter 0, studying and performing Parayans of a detailed Guru biography serves multiple purposes. For the individual writer and reader, it is a form of Guru service. For the community, when a congregation of devotees engages in study and Parayans, the Sadguru accepts this as a form of service. This collective act allows the writer to gain the merit of serving God in humanity (Jan-Janardan) and performing public service. Furthermore, as the text explains, the other devotees who participate in these studies and readings also progress towards achieving the purpose of their lives, fostering a spiritually enriched community.
