According to Chapter 47, what is Hemadpant's role in writing these stories, and who is considered the true narrator?

๐Ÿ“– Chapter 47

In Chapter 47 of the Shri Sai Satcharitra, the author, Hemadpant, presents a humble perspective on his role. He suggests that he is merely a medium or a "nickname," questioning his own significance. The chapter explicitly states, "Sai Samarth himself is the story, the speaker, and the face; In that case, who is Hemad? He is merely a nickname." This highlights the belief that Shri Sai is the ultimate source of the narrative. It is explained that Sai enters the author's heart and narrates the accounts himself. Therefore, while Hemadpant is the writer, Shri Sai is revered as the true storyteller, with the author simply being an instrument for conveying Sai's divine words.
