How does the author of the Satcharitra view their own role in narrating Sai's life in this chapter?

📖 Chapter 36

In Chapter 36, the author expresses profound humility, acknowledging the impossibility of fully capturing the infinite greatness of saints. The narrator questions their own authority, stating, "What authority do I have? I am truly aware of this." The author resolves this by explaining that the narration is not an act of personal ego or "I-ness." Instead, it is the "playful Sai himself" who takes over the process. Sai makes his own qualities heard by his devotees, using the speaker and the listener as mere pretexts to fulfill the desires of the devotees and spread his own stories, which he loves very much.
