There is absolutely no problem with loving, honouring and paying due deference to one’s Shaykh as it can be inferred that he has more rights than our Biological parents because former adorns our afterlife while later only this life (possibly).
“Hazrat Worship” is being vindictive, abusive, slanderous, presumptuous and enraged at the slightest hint of disrespect towards one’s Shaykh which a person has actually MISUNDERTSOOD or the other person has DISAGREED with a Shaykh in the presence of valid, sound and comprehensive Islamic evidence.
“Hazrat Worship” is also conclusively turning away from the main body and united opinion of Ahlus-Sunnah Wal Jamaah and following one’s Shaykh when the matter is clearly understood and fathomed.
Most importantly “Hazrat Worship” is believing that Haqq is ONLY found with MY Shaykh!
Again your understanding is very flawed and your premise that to disagree with someone is to disrespect him and in order to respect and love someone it is required to agree with him perpetually.
Ibn `Abbas said: "Barirah's husband was a slave, who was known as Mughith. I can almost see him, running after her and crying, with tears running down onto his beard. The Prophet (Sallallaho Alaihe Wassallam) said to `Abbas, `O `Abbas, do you not find it strange, how much Mugith loves Barirah, and how much Barirah hates Mughith?' The Prophet (Sallallaho Alaihe Wassallam) said (to Barirah), `Why do you not go back to him?' She said, `O Messenger of Allah (Sallallaho Alaihe Wassallam), are you commanding me to do so?' He said, `I am merely trying to intervene on his behalf.' She said, `I have no need of him.'" [Fathal-Bari]
Here you see Sayyida Barirah (RA) clearly disagreeing with Nabi (Sallallaho Alaihe Wassallam). Your whole argument about love, care, admiration falls flat because he is the incident which you can neither deny nor explain using your framework.
The only premise which the Sufees present is that this wasn't a Huk'm of Shariah and there are 2 importants points to the response:
Why would someone disagree or deliberately disobey a Hukm of Shariah? Shaykh or no Shaykh?
This was a liking of Nabi (Sallallaho Alaihe Wassallam) i.e. he intended (liked) for her to do this which she turned down! Imagine the liking of a "Hazrat" in comparison
In short, nobody is denying the right of Mashaykh nor denying them their stature. We can start the conversation from this position to which we all agree upon.
This cannot be undone and I am sure it will be greatly appreciated.
Please wait...
