What are the specific benefits of listening to the Guru's stories as described in Chapter 3?

According to Chapter 3, the benefits of listening to the Guru's stories are profound and transformative. This practice is described as an easy means to the supreme goal. It is said to burn away the five great sins (Pancha-maha-pap) and loosen the "ropes of worldly existence" that bind our true selves. The text states that by listening with focused attention, the heat of worldly existence is calmed, and souls find peace. This leads to natural meditation on Sai, allows one to visualize His form, fosters devotion to the Sadguru, and helps achieve detachment from the world, ultimately purifying the intellect.
