According to Chapter 25, the author's motivation was a direct command and inspiration from Sai Baba himself. The text reveals the author's humility, as he states he lacked the authority, knowledge, or erudition for such a task. However, he explains that when the desire to write the Shri Sai Charitra arose in his heart, Sai Baba inspired him, a 'poor soul,' and made him write it with his own hands to awaken the devotees. As Chapter 25 states, the moment Sai gave the command 'Keep the records,' the author's 'meager intellect became endowed with courage and special knowledge.' He believed the work was not a mere play of words but the grace and 'Prasad' from the Saint's feet, written for the salvation of devotees.
