What do the examples of devotees like Tatya and Nanasaheb Nimonkar reveal about the relationship between active service and spiritual growth, particularly in overcoming inertia?

The examples of Tatya and Nanasaheb Nimonkar reveal that active, dedicated service is a direct path to overcoming spiritual and physical inertia. Chapter 0 describes how Tatya diligently managed all arrangements in the Masjid and Chavadi and would help Maharaj get up. Similarly, Nanasaheb Nimonkar, though over sixty, was characterized by his constant and prompt service, to the point where "laziness or a desire for rest never touched him." These accounts, found in Chapter 0, suggest that devotion isn't passive; it's an active, engaged state that combats laziness and fosters spiritual growth through selfless action.
