Chapter 16 explains that a Sadguru is 'Aptakama,' meaning one whose desires are already fulfilled, so they do not need anything from a disciple. However, the chapter clarifies that if a devotee offers even a simple leaf or flower with genuine faith and love, the Sadguru accepts it with great affection. Conversely, if an offering is made with pride, He will turn away. As stated in Chapter 16, the Sadguru's true purpose is to fulfill the disciple's desire for service, thereby helping the disciple become desireless themselves. He enjoys rituals performed with sincere faith, not for the ritual itself, but for the devotion behind it.
