(Saints take theburden of misdeeds of their followers on their own body to keep those initiatedby them clean and thus save them from pangs and anxiety of the day of judgment.This is however a poor estimate of the gigantic treasure of love they havefor their disciples, regardless of reciprocity serious and hard to endure.
