Can you summarize the key deities invoked at the beginning of the Sai Satcharitra and the author's ultimate declaration about Sai?

📖 Chapter 1

The beginning of the Sai Satcharitra, as detailed in Chapter 1, is marked by a series of auspicious invocations, or 'Mangalacharan'. The author offers salutations to several deities to ensure the obstacle-free completion of the book. These include Lord Ganesha, the destroyer of obstacles; Goddess Saraswati, the goddess of speech and knowledge; the trinity of Brahma, Vishnu, and Shankar; and the family deity, Narayana. The central theme running through these invocations, as Chapter 1 reveals, is the author's profound belief that Sai Baba is the non-dual embodiment of all these deities, calling him the boat to cross the river of worldly existence.
