According to Chapter 50, Hemadpant clarifies that he is not the true author but merely a "nominal cause" for the Satcharitra's creation, with Sai Baba being the one who "makes the words speak." The book's primary value, therefore, is to serve as a direct conduit for Sai's grace and teaching. Its purpose is to help the reader achieve "non-dual devotion" and a "natural state" (Sahaj-sthiti), where the distinctions between the reader, the reading, and Sai dissolve. The chapter states that when the stories of Saints fall on the ears, sin is removed and merit sprouts. The ultimate value is this spiritual transformation, where steady devotion to Sai becomes the "supreme attainment," purifying the heart and making all the senses become "Sai-form."
If the book doesn't mention many other saints, what is its primary value according to its author, Hemadpant?
