How does Chapter 40 describe the relationship between the author, Hemadpant, and Sai Baba in the context of writing the Satcharitra?

📖 Chapter 40

Chapter 40 elaborates on the dynamic between the author and his Guru, Sai Baba. It makes it clear that the author, Hemadpant, does not consider himself the true creator of the work. The text states, 'I am merely a puppet of Sai, dancing to the pull of His strings.' This chapter posits that Sai Baba is the ultimate source of inspiration and intelligence behind the Shri Sai Satcharitra. Hemadpant insists that listeners should not attribute virtues or faults to him, as they all belong to Sai. As Chapter 40 explains, Sai is the one who approves the stories and is the 'original stimulator of consciousness,' effectively writing His own biography through the author.
