Based on the introduction to the story of the two Goan gentlemen, what is the role of the narrator in telling Sai's stories?

The introduction in Chapter 36 of the Shri Sai Satcharitra presents a humble perspective on the narrator's role. The author acknowledges the infinite greatness of saints and questions their own authority to describe it, stating, 'What authority do I have? I am truly aware of this.' The text clarifies that the narrator's ego or 'I-ness' is set aside, as the 'playful Sai himself takes over and makes his own qualities heard by his devotees through someone.' This implies that the narrator is merely a pretext or a channel, and it is Sai Baba who is the true source of the stories, using them to connect with and fulfill the wishes of his devotees.
