How does the narrator, Hemadpant, portray his own role in writing down Sai Baba's stories in Chapter 47?

πŸ“– Chapter 47

In Chapter 47, the narrator, Hemadpant, portrays his role with profound humility, presenting himself as a mere instrument for a higher power. He explicitly diminishes his own importance by stating, "Sai Samarth himself is the story, the speaker, and the face; In that case, who is Hemad? He is merely a nickname." He further reinforces this by saying that Sai Baba is the true narrator who, after "Entering my heart, He himself narrated this account." Hemadpant suggests that his role as the speaker is empty if he fails to grasp the story's essence, just like any other listener. This perspective, detailed in Chapter 47, shows that he does not see himself as an author but as a humble scribe or a channel for the divine wisdom flowing directly from Sai Baba.
