How does the author, Hemadpant, describe his role in the creation of the Shri Sai Satcharitra within Chapter 40?

πŸ“– Chapter 40

In Chapter 40, the author Hemadpant humbly distances himself from the authorship of the text, presenting himself as a mere instrument of Sai Baba. He explicitly states that Sai is the true originator, the one who gives him intelligence and stimulates his consciousness to write. Hemadpant uses the powerful analogy of being a puppet, declaring, 'I am merely a puppet of Sai, dancing to the pull of His strings.' He urges listeners not to attribute virtues or faults to him, as both belong to Sai, the puppeteer who can make the puppet dance in any way He chooses. This reinforces the idea that the entire work is an act of Sai's grace for the welfare of devotees.
