Can you explain the author's personal feelings and motivations for undertaking the task of writing the Satcharitra, as described in Chapter 2?

📖 Chapter 2

As detailed in Chapter 2, the author's motivation stemmed from a deep desire to collect Sai Baba's various stories and string them into a book, viewing this as a good form of worship. He was driven by the idea of preserving these stories for devotees who had not seen Baba in person. However, he also harbored significant personal doubts. He mentions in Chapter 2 that having crossed sixty years of age, he felt his intellect was not sharp and worried that weakness might cause the effort to fail. Despite this doubt, which he shared with Madhavrao (Shama), he decided to proceed, concluding that even if it resulted in "empty talk," that talk should be for Sai’s love to achieve a spiritual goal, as any other talk would be useless.
