The author of the text describes himself as 'insignificant' and 'unqualified.' How does he reconcile this with the task of writing Sai Baba's life story?

📖 Chapter 3

The author attributes his ability to undertake this monumental task not to his own merit, but entirely to the Guru's grace. As explained in Chapter 3, he sees himself as the 'most insignificant of all' and initially questions why he was chosen. However, he concludes that it is a 'miracle of the Guru’s grace.' He surrenders his personal agency, stating that when he lifted the pen, Baba 'took away my 'I-ness' (ego).' He firmly believes that Sai Baba himself is the true author, writing His own story for the welfare of the devotees, and the glory belongs entirely to Him. The author is merely an instrument, like a flute that does not worry about the music it produces.
