According to Chapter 53, the original author, Hemadpant (Dabholkar), had promised to write a summary to conclude the book but unexpectedly passed away before he could do so. This event is described as an exception to the general rule that an author completes their own work, suggesting that "Baba’s will is more powerful." After his death, his son Gajanan provided his father's vast records, but the summary was not found among them. As detailed in the chapter, after some deliberation and a failed attempt to publish a summary by a deadline, a new author took up the task, praying for divine grace to complete the work Hemadpant had started.
What circumstances led to someone other than Hemadpant writing the concluding summary of the Shri Sai Satcharitra?
