According to Chapter 47, what is the role of Hemadpant, the author, in the creation of the Sai Satcharitra?

Chapter 47 uniquely positions the author, Hemadpant, not as the originator of the stories, but as a mere vessel for Sai Baba's own narration. The chapter explicitly states, "Sai is the eye of the eyes and the ear of the ears; Entering my heart, He himself narrated this account." It further diminishes the author's individual agency by posing the question, "Sai Samarth himself is the story, the speaker, and the face; In that case, who is Hemad? He is merely a nickname." This perspective, detailed throughout Chapter 47, emphasizes that the wisdom and stories flow directly from Sai, presenting the text as a divine discourse rather than a simple human composition.
