How did the Shri Sai Satcharita itself contribute to forming a community of devotees as it was being created?

The Shri Sai Satcharita, described as a sweet, inspirational, and grace-filled biography, played a key role in building a following. As detailed in Chapter 0, this work was not released all at once. It was written by the devotee Shri Govind Raghunath alias Annasaheb Dabholkar and published chapter by chapter over a period of six years in the Shri Sai Leela magazine. This serialized publication method would have cultivated a dedicated community of readers who eagerly awaited each installment, discussing the leelas and teachings together long before the complete book was compiled, making the very process of its creation a community-building event.
