Based on Sai's teachings, what is the relationship between ego, surrender, and the creative process of writing His story?

As detailed in Chapter 2, the relationship between ego, surrender, and the creative process is central to how Sai Baba's story was written. Baba stipulated that the author must first dissolve his ego and surrender it completely at His feet. Only by performing this act of surrender could the author receive Baba's full assistance. In this state, the author becomes merely a "pretext" or an instrument. Sai Baba declared, "I myself shall write my own story!" explaining that once the ego is gone, "I myself shall enter with 'I-ness' and write with my own hand." This illustrates a divine creative process where the work is accomplished by the One to whom it belongs, not the ego-driven individual.
