According to the teachings in Chapter 18 of the Shri Sai Satcharitra, receiving the Guru's grace has a transformative effect on a person. The text states that if, by a stroke of fortune, one falls within the Guru's grace, the 'false logic of "mine" and "thine"' completely disappears. This means that the devotee transcends the duality of seeing others as 'ours' or 'strangers.' Furthermore, the Guru's word is described as a 'ray of light, a smooth guide' on the difficult path of worldly life, which is otherwise narrowed by distraction and the veil of ignorance. The Guru shows the true path and helps fulfill the desires of devotees.
