How does the writer justify pausing the main story to explain the origin of the name 'Hemadpant'?

The author justifies the narrative digression by presenting it as both a fulfillment of a prior promise and a necessary clarification for the reader. As he explains in Chapter 2, the attribution 'Composed by the devotee Hemadpant' at the end of each chapter naturally makes readers curious about who this person is. He mentions that he promised in the first chapter to tell this story. By addressing this curiosity, he satisfies the reader and demonstrates the appropriateness of the sub-story. Most importantly, he frames this decision not as his own, but as 'Sai’s inspiration,' thus aligning the detour with the divine will that he believes is guiding the entire composition of the book.
