How does the author use the examples of Mahipati and Das Ganu to frame his own role in writing about Sai Baba?

In Chapter 2, the author uses the historical examples of Mahipati and Das Ganu to illustrate the principle of divinely inspired authorship. He explains that just as saints took service from Mahipati around the year 1700 (Shaka) and from Das Ganu around 1800 (Shaka) to have their biographies written, he is now being used by Sai Baba for the same service. This comparison serves to diminish his own agency and emphasize that he is merely an instrument. By drawing this parallel, he reinforces his central theme that saints write their own stories themselves, simply keeping their hand on the author's head to guide the work, making the devotee a pretext for the Saint's own will.
