Based on Chapter 47, what is the role of Hemadpant as the author, and what is his relationship to the stories he tells?

In Chapter 47, Hemadpant presents himself not as the originator of the stories but as a humble instrument for Sai Baba's divine narration. He explicitly states that "Sai is the eye of the eyes and the ear of the ears; Entering my heart, He himself narrated this account." He even questions his own identity in the process, suggesting Hemad is "merely a nickname" because Sai Samarth is the true story, speaker, and source. This establishes a dynamic where the author is also a listener who must grasp the essence of the teachings. As described in Chapter 47, he feels he is sitting on the shore of an ocean of Sai's stories, under a wish-fulfilling tree, where stories arise effortlessly. This portrayal emphasizes that the Shri Sai Satcharitra is a divine discourse flowing through him, not his personal creation.
