As explained in Chapter 0, the creation and study of a detailed poetic Guru biography yields profound spiritual benefits for all involved. For the author, the act of writing is a direct form of Guru service. This service extends further, as the author also gains the merit of serving God in humanity (Jan-Janardan) and performing public service when other devotees read the work. For the readers who study and perform Parayans of the biography, it becomes a powerful means to achieve the ultimate purpose of their lives. This entire cycle is framed as a way the Sadguru accepts service from both the writer and the congregation.
