The author of Chapter 53 expresses extreme humility and a sense of inadequacy for the task of completing Hemadpant's masterpiece. The writer repeatedly describes themselves as a 'fool with a dull intellect' who has 'no scent of knowledge' or skill in composing poetry. As detailed in the chapter, the author felt dejected by the challenge and prayed fervently to Lord Dattaguru and Sai-Narayana for mercy and inspiration. The core of their perspective, as stated in Chapter 53, is that they have no personal strength for the task and that the summary is only being written because Sai Baba's grace can 'make a gnat lift a mountain.' They see themselves as merely an instrument, with Sai Baba being the true author.
