What does the author of the Sai Satcharitra say about their own role in writing Chapter 38, and what narrative transition occurs?

📖 Chapter 38

In Chapter 38, the author makes a clear narrative transition, stating that the previous chapter described the Chavadi with great love, and now the story of the Handi (cooking pot) will be told. The author describes their role with great humility, using an analogy of a mother and child. As mentioned in Chapter 38, the author compares themselves to a small child who knows how to eat but not what to eat, implying their own limited understanding. They portray 'Mother Sai' as the one who lovingly places the pen in their hand and 'is getting this composition written spontaneously for the sake of His own beloved devotees.' This framing suggests the author sees themselves merely as a divine instrument, with the work being inspired and guided directly by Sai Baba.
