How does the author describe the role of divine inspiration and other authors like Das Ganu in the tradition of writing about saints?

📖 Chapter 2

Chapter 2 explains that the author is not acting alone but is an instrument of a higher power. The text draws a parallel with historical writers, stating that just as Mahipati was inspired in the year 1700 (Shaka) and Das Ganu in 1800 (Shaka), the author is now being used to write these stories. The core idea is that saints or the Lord hold the author's hand and write their own story, keeping their hand on the author's head. The author explicitly states, "Making me his pen, Baba himself will guide my hand. I am merely the owner in name; I only shape the letters." This shows a deep belief that the work is a form of service, divinely ordained and guided, rather than a product of personal intellect alone.
