What is the nature of the Sadguru's desires and how should a devotee approach him with offerings, according to Chapter 16?

Chapter 16 explains that a Sadguru is 'Aptakama', meaning one whose desires are already fulfilled, so a disciple cannot truly fulfill any need for him. Instead, the Sadguru graciously fulfills the disciple's desire to serve, thereby making the disciple desireless. The chapter emphasizes the importance of the devotee's inner state, stating that if a simple leaf or flower is offered with sincere faith, the Guru accepts it with great love. However, if an offering is made with pride, he will turn away. This highlights that for the Sadguru, who is an "ocean of Truth, Consciousness, and Bliss," sincere faith is far more valuable than outward rituals.
