Chapter 53 provides a detailed portrait of Hemadpant (Annasahab). He is described as a "jewel among poets" and a "mine of virtues" from whose mouth Vedanta flowed, his words filled with divine blessing through his Guru's grace. The chapter also highlights his extremely frugal nature, noting that he never let a scrap of paper go to waste and would write chapters on these scraps, even sending them directly to the printer. This habit was born from a compassion for even "poor, lifeless scraps of paper," which he sought to redeem through service to Baba.
