Chapter 2 draws a parallel between the author and previous writers like Mahipati and Das Ganu. What is this comparison, and what does it reveal about the author's motivation?

Chapter 2 draws a direct lineage of divine inspiration for writing the lives of saints. It explains how Mahipati was inspired in the year 1700 (Shaka) and Das Ganu in the year 1800 (Shaka) to write their famous biographies. The author places himself in this tradition, stating that just as the Saints took service from them, he too is being guided. As Chapter 2 details, the author feels that Baba himself is the one writing the story through him, making him a mere instrument. This comparison reveals that his motivation is not personal ambition but a sense of being chosen for a sacred task, aiming to bring merit and purity to devotees.
