The text mentions the narrator's 'I-ness' or ego. How does Chapter 36 explain Sai's role in the creation and telling of his own stories?

📖 Chapter 36

Chapter 36 presents a fascinating perspective on the narration of Sai's life story. The author humbly acknowledges their own limitations, questioning their authority to describe the infinite greatness of a saint. The text states, "Enough of this 'I-ness' (ego) of the speaker; the playful Sai himself takes over and makes his own qualities heard by his devotees through someone." This suggests that Sai Baba is the true narrator, using the author and speaker as a "mere pretext." As described in this chapter, Sai loves his own stories and provides the memories for them, orchestrating the entire process to fulfill the spiritual desires of his devotees.
