Based on the introduction to Chapter 36, what benefits are gained from listening to Sai's stories, and what is the author's role in narrating them?

According to the introductory section of Chapter 36 of the Sai Satcharitra, listening to Sai's stories provides immense spiritual benefits. The text describes these narratives as the "very water of self-bliss" that removes the fatigue and misery of worldly existence, leading to a state of happiness and increased thirst for devotion. The author expresses great humility, questioning his own authority to narrate such greatness. He states that the ego of the speaker is irrelevant, as the playful Sai himself takes over, using the narrator as a mere pretext or instrument to make his own qualities known to his devotees and fulfill their desires.
