In Chapter 2, the author presents himself as a humble instrument for a divine purpose. He expresses the belief that he is merely a pen and that Baba himself will guide his hand, making the author only the "owner in name." His motivation was a deep desire to collect Baba's stories for devotees. Despite this calling, he harbored significant self-doubt, which he discussed with Madhavrao (Shama). Having crossed sixty years of age, he worried that his intellect was not sharp and that the effort might fail, but he ultimately resolved that the endeavor was spiritually worthwhile if undertaken for the love of Sai.
