Describe the overall mood and narrative setup established in the preamble to the story of the two Goan gentlemen.

The preamble in Chapter 36 establishes a highly reverent and anticipatory mood. It begins with a series of sacred invocations, immediately setting a devotional tone. The text then builds anticipation for a new story by promising it will be a source of "self-bliss" capable of removing worldly misery. The author positions Sai Baba as an infinite, supreme being, and the act of listening to his story as a purifying and spiritually beneficial practice. As Chapter 36 explains, this entire introduction serves to prepare the reader, to "purify" their ears and mouth, so they may respectfully receive the holy life story, which is then announced to be about "The Two Gentlemen from Goa."
