How does the author of the Sai Satcharitra describe his role in writing the book, and what historical precedents does he cite?

In Chapter 2, the author humbly presents himself as merely an instrument, an "ignorant person" through whom Sai Baba is writing his own story. He states, "Making me his pen, Baba himself will guide my hand. I am merely the owner in name." This idea is supported by historical examples, such as Mahipati in the year 1700 (Shaka) and Das Ganu in 1800 (Shaka), who were similarly inspired by saints to write their biographies. The author sees his work as following in this sacred tradition of service, where the saints themselves ensure their stories are told.
