How does the narrator of the Satcharitra view their own role in telling Sai's stories in Chapter 36?

In Chapter 36, the narrator expresses profound humility and downplays their own significance in the process of storytelling. They question their own capability by stating, "What authority do I have? I am truly aware of this." The text suggests that the ego of the speaker, or "I-ness," is set aside because the "playful Sai himself takes over and makes his own qualities heard by his devotees through someone." This idea is reinforced when the chapter mentions that Sai makes the "listener and speaker a mere pretext" to fulfill the desires of devotees. The narrator, therefore, sees themself not as an author but as a humble instrument for Sai's divine will.
