In what metaphorical ways is the Guru praised and described in Chapter 50?

📖 Chapter 50

Chapter 50 uses rich, metaphorical language to praise the exalted nature of the Guru. He is referred to as the 'remover of birth and death,' a 'cloud of mercy,' and the 'light of knowledge.' The scripture continues these descriptions, calling the Guru the 'sun that destroys the darkness of the world,' the 'moon to the Chakor-bird of the devotee’s heart,' and a 'wish-fulfilling tree.' Ultimately, the chapter conveys that the Guru's greatness is unfathomable and beyond description, suggesting that the most fitting response is to simply bow at the Guru’s feet in humility.
