In Chapter 44, Hemadpant reveals that he is merely an instrument in the creation of the Sai Satcharitra. He humbly states, "The capable Sai is their speaker; He is the writer and the one who makes me write." He sees himself as someone selecting and distributing the blessed food, or 'Shirani', of Sai's stories. More profoundly, Hemadpant explains the transformative power of engaging with these narratives. He asserts that "those who sing Sai’s glory, as well as those who listen with good faith, both become the form of Sai." This implies that the text is a direct emanation from Sai, and engaging with it faithfully allows both the narrator and the listener to dissolve their individuality and merge with Sai's consciousness.
From Hemadpant's perspective, what is the divine nature of the Sai Satcharitra's creation and its effect on the audience?
