There seems to be a contradiction. The book is credited to 'Hemadpant,' but it also says Sai Baba wrote it himself. Which one is true?

This apparent contradiction is directly addressed within the narrative presented in Chapter 2. While the chapters are credited to 'the devotee Hemadpant,' Sai Baba himself explained the dynamic by saying, 'He is merely a pretext; I myself shall write my own story!' The text clarifies this spiritual concept further with Sai's words: 'When the ego is dissolved, no trace of it remains. Then I myself shall enter with 'I-ness' and write with my own hand.' Therefore, Hemadpant is understood to be the physical scribe and instrument, while the divine inspiration and true authorship are attributed to Sai Baba, working through a surrendered devotee.
