How does the author describe his own character before writing the book, and how does this relate to the origin of the name 'Hemadpant'?

The author provides a candid self-assessment of his character before undertaking the sacred work. As described in Chapter 2, he admits to being initially mischievous, talkative, cynical, and critical. He was arrogant about his knowledge, possessing a logic-driven mind that was prone to argumentation and unaware of the Satguru's greatness. This reflection is prompted by Baba's words against "dualistic explanations," which reminds the author of his promise to explain how he received the name "Hemadpant." This sub-story is introduced to satisfy the reader's curiosity about the name that appears at the end of every chapter.
