What is the ideal attitude and relationship a Sadguru should have towards a disciple, as detailed in Chapter 48?

📖 Chapter 48

Chapter 48 of the Sai Satcharitra outlines a profound and selfless relationship between a Sadguru and a disciple. A Sadguru is described as being completely free from the egoism of thinking he is great and the disciple is insignificant. Instead, he considers the disciple as the Supreme Brahman and has a 'fatherly love' for him. Furthermore, a true Sadguru never desires his own livelihood or service from the disciple; in fact, the text states he should be willing to sacrifice his own body for the disciple's sake. This chapter emphasizes that the place of a Sadguru is where the small and the great are treated as equals.
