What did Sai Baba's Guru expect from him as a disciple, and what was the nature of the Guru's love as described in Chapter 19?

According to the narrative in Chapter 19, Sai Baba's Guru did not desire material things but had specific expectations of his disciple's inner state. The text clarifies, "This was all my Guru expected; he desired nothing more than this; he never neglected me and always protected me in times of trouble." The primary expectation was Baba's constant, loving contemplation of him. In return, the Guru's love was boundless and protective. Baba describes him as a "veritable idol of devotion and love, who had true affection for his disciple," and whose heart was "full of immense love." He served as a complete protector, raising Baba for twelve years and ensuring he never lacked for anything, demonstrating a relationship that was nurturing, deeply affectionate, and spiritually focused.
