What does Chapter 12 say about how saints interact with devotees and those who are ignorant of spiritual matters?

As detailed in Chapter 12, saints are drawn by the love of their devotees and will expend their merits and overcome any obstacle for their sake. For individuals who are ignorant of the spiritual supreme goal and are engrossed in worldly desires for family and wealth, saints show immense compassion. The text notes that a saint might even devote his life to these ignorant and innocent ones, whom God also supports. This dedication helps manifest firm faith, which the chapter suggests is more fruitful than the "stiffness of dry knowledge."
