How does the act of writing and reading a Guru's biography create spiritual merit for those involved?

Based on the insights in Chapter 0, the creation and study of a Guru's biography is a profound form of service that benefits all participants. The author who undertakes the task of writing a detailed poetic biography is considered to be performing Guru service. When other devotees study this work and perform Parayans, the author also gains the merit of serving God in humanity (Jan-Janardan). For the devotees who read and study the biography, this act of devotion helps them achieve the ultimate purpose of their lives, making it a spiritually rewarding practice for the entire community.
