Can you describe the lineage of authors who wrote about saints, as mentioned in the source material?

Chapter 2 outlines a tradition of saints inspiring authors to document their lives. It begins with Mahipati, who, in the year 1700 (Shaka), was inspired to write biographies. He composed four notable works: Bhakta-Vijay, Santa-Vijay, Bhakta-Lilamrut, and Santa-Lilamrut. A century later, in the year 1800 (Shaka), this service was taken from Das Ganu. He continued the tradition by writing two more books, also titled Bhakta-Lilamrut and Santa-Kathamrut, which focused on modern-day devotees and saints. The text specifically notes that the sweet life of Shri Sai is detailed in three chapters of Das Ganu's Bhakta-Lilamrut, placing the current author within this established literary and spiritual heritage.
