What are the qualities of a Sadguru, and how do they differ from those of a worldly father?

Chapter 28 provides a clear distinction between the role of a worldly father and a Sadguru. A father is responsible for giving birth to the physical body, a body that is inevitably subject to death. The Sadguru's role, however, operates on a spiritual plane with 'additional compassion.' The text states that a Sadguru has the profound ability to remove both birth and death, liberating the disciple from this endless cycle. Furthermore, Chapter 28 notes that a Sadguru is proficient in both Shabda-Brahma (the divine word) and Para-Brahman (the Supreme Being), and can impart this profound knowledge to disciples, guiding them towards their own true nature.
