Sai Baba supposedly says 'I myself shall write my own story,' yet every chapter is credited to 'Hemadpant.' Isn't this a clear contradiction?

📖 Chapter 2

The text presents this not as a contradiction but as a description of the author's role as a divine instrument. In Chapter 2, Sai Baba gives his blessing for the book, clarifying the dynamic by saying, "He is merely a pretext; I myself shall write my own story!" The condition for this divine authorship was the author's complete surrender and dissolution of his ego. Sai promised, "When the ego is dissolved... I myself shall enter with 'I-ness' and write with my own hand." Therefore, the credit to "Hemadpant" at the end of each chapter, also mentioned in Chapter 2, signifies the human vessel through whom Sai chose to compose the work, fulfilling the role of a "pretext" as originally intended by Sai.
