How does Chapter 36 describe Sai Baba's relationship with his own stories and the people who tell them?

Chapter 36 of the Shri Sai Satcharitra provides a nuanced description of Sai Baba's role in the narration of his own life. It suggests that the speaker is merely a vessel, stating that "the playful Sai himself takes over and makes his own qualities heard by his devotees through someone." The text emphasizes that Sai loves his own stories and constantly provides memories of them, using both the listener and the speaker as a pretext to fulfill the desires of his devotees. This indicates that Baba is not a passive subject but an active participant in the dissemination of his life story.
