What does Chapter 22 of the Shri Sai Satcharitra say about the nature of the Sadguru?

Chapter 22 begins with powerful salutations to the Sadguru, describing him as the embodiment of bliss, a supreme purifier, and the destroyer of the fear of worldly existence. The text uses a profound analogy of a snake and a rope in dim light to explain the Guru's role. As detailed in this chapter, the Guru is both the creator of illusion (the snake) and the one who reveals the true reality (the rope), ultimately being the one who removes the fear caused by that illusion. The chapter emphasizes that the Guru is the source of all, even the formless state before illusion and reality came into being.
