The author presents a very humble perspective on his role in writing the Satcharitra. In Chapter 3, he explains that he is merely a pretext or an instrument for a divine work orchestrated by Sainath Himself. He writes, "Keeping me in front as a pretext, He Himself did this work." To illustrate this point, the text uses beautiful analogies. Sai's grace and love are compared to a motherly cow that naturally feels a surge of milk for her calf and a rain cloud that showers rain for the thirsty Chataka bird. As Chapter 3 conveys, the creation of these stories is not the author's own effort but an outpouring of Sai's love to satisfy the spiritual thirst of His devotees.
How does the author of the Satcharitra describe Sai Baba's role in the creation of the book in Chapter 3?
