According to the introduction of Chapter 43, what is the purpose of recounting the story of a saint's passing?

📖 Chapter 43

The introduction in Chapter 43 of the Shri Sai Satcharitra explains that recounting the stories of saints serves a profound spiritual purpose. It states that the "remembrance of the glory of God's devotees" is the easiest means of purifying the mind and washing away accumulated sins. While acknowledging that the topic of death can be difficult, the chapter asserts that the story of the passing of saints and sages "purifies both the listeners and the speakers." Therefore, the narration is presented not as a somber tale but as a spiritually beneficial act for all involved.
