If Hemadpant isn't the real author, why should we trust the Satcharitra? Isn't it just his personal interpretation?

Chapter 50 directly addresses this by explaining that Hemadpant is merely a 'nominal cause' for the creation of the Sai Satcharitra, intended for the 'true welfare of the devotees.' The text asserts that 'there is no one other than Sai who makes the words speak.' It encourages the reader not to get caught up in the origin, comparing it to finding a pearl and then losing it by focusing too much on the shell it came from. The ultimate guidance provided in Chapter 50 is to transcend the idea of a separate author and reader, and instead perceive Sai as the singular force behind the words, the hearing, and the listener, ensuring that non-duality remains unbroken.
