What is the importance of having faith (Shraddha) and patience (Saburi) for spiritual progress, according to Hemadpant's writings?

In Chapter 2, Hemadpant emphasizes the absolute necessity of faith (Shraddha) and patience (Saburi) for any spiritual attainment. He states unequivocally that without these two qualities, "not a bit of the spiritual goal is achieved." This realization comes after a lesson in humility where he was cautioned against the pride of debating and reminded that even divine incarnations like Rama and Krishna submitted to a Guru. This experience solidified for him the scriptural truth that a Guru is essential and that progress on the spiritual path is impossible without the foundational virtues of Shraddha and Saburi.
