According to Chapter 47, what is the purpose of listening to Sai's stories, and who is considered the true narrator?

According to the text of Chapter 47, the primary purpose of listening to Sai Baba's stories is to achieve profound spiritual purification and liberation from worldly bonds. The chapter states that upon hearing these holy accounts, the "bonds of Karma will be severed," and listeners will find peace from the weariness of worldly life. It promises that focusing on the inner meaning will lead to the fulfillment of one's purpose. Furthermore, Chapter 47 makes the remarkable claim that Sai Baba himself is the true narrator of these tales. The author explicitly states, "Sai is the eye of the eyes and the ear of the ears; Entering my heart, He himself narrated this account," positioning himself as merely a humble instrument for Sai's divine speech.
