Can you explain the background behind the author being named 'Hemadpant'?

The author promises to tell the story of how he was named 'Hemadpant,' a name that appears at the end of every chapter. In Chapter 2, he acknowledges that this naturally creates curiosity. Before revealing the specifics of the naming ceremony, he provides context about his own character at the time. He describes himself as having been mischievous, talkative, cynical, and critical. He was arrogant about his knowledge, had a logic-driven mind prone to argumentation, and was ignorant of a Satguru's greatness. This self-description sets the stage for the story of his transformation and how he received the name.
