In Chapter 47, the author presents himself not as the creator of the story, but as a humble vessel. He states that Sai Baba is the true narrator, saying, "Sai is the eye of the eyes and the ear of the ears; Entering my heart, He himself narrated this account." This portrays the author's role as a divine scribe, merely transcribing a story channeled through him by Sai. He further emphasizes his humility by telling the listeners that he is "as empty as you are if I do not grasp the distilled essence here," implying that understanding the moral is more important than the act of speaking or writing. This perspective, found in Chapter 47, reinforces the sacred origin and spiritual authority of the narrative.
