How does the author of the Shri Sai Satcharitra establish a relationship with the audience at the beginning of Chapter 15?

๐Ÿ“– Chapter 15

At the start of Chapter 15, the author establishes a relationship of deep humility and reverence towards the audience, referred to as "good listeners." The author uses the metaphor of an ocean to describe them, stating that just as the ocean accepts all rivers, whether the pure Ganges or a muddy stream, the listeners' hearts are vast enough to receive the author's stories. The text explicitly states, "I wish to immerse myself in you," which shows the author's desire to connect deeply rather than just narrate. As presented in Chapter 15, this approach elevates the role of the listener, suggesting that their grace and attention are essential for the stories to achieve their purpose, which is to foster devotion and love.
