Before telling Damu Anna's story, how does the author describe the nature of the Shri Sai Satcharitra itself?

Before introducing Damu Anna's story, the author uses several rich metaphors to convey the sacred nature of the Shri Sai Satcharitra. In Chapter 25, the author claims the act of writing was made possible by courage and special knowledge granted by Sai Baba. The book is called the "grace and 'Prasad' of the Saint's feet." It is likened to a "Shed of Nectar-like Sai Stories" that provides devotees relief from the heat of worldly existence. The text is also compared to a 'Somakant' or Moonstone, from which the nectar of Sai's tales flows to satisfy the thirst of devotees, who are likened to Chakora birds. The stories are presented as holy tales that have the power to burn away the sins of the Kali age.
