What analogy does the scripture use to explain the ideal devotion of a disciple to their Guru?

Chapter 45 uses the powerful metaphor of a devoted and chaste wife (Pativrata) to illustrate a disciple's ideal love for their Guru. Just as a devoted wife’s love for her husband is boundless and he is her only lifelong support, a disciple should feel the same singular love toward the Guru’s feet. The text explains that a chaste wife never even considers another man as her husband, and this unwavering focus is the model for a disciple's devotion. While this metaphor is used, the chapter also clarifies that the love for a Guru actually has no limits, as a true disciple understands its profound greatness.
