What is the author's perspective on his role in writing the Shri Sai Satcharitra, as explained in the fortieth chapter?

In Chapter 40, the author, Hemadpant, makes it clear that he does not consider himself the true composer of the work. He explicitly asks listeners not to harbor the doubt that he composes the book by his own intellect. He describes himself as merely a "puppet of Sai, dancing to the pull of His strings." This metaphor illustrates that Sai is the puppeteer, the "original stimulator of consciousness," who performs His own story through the author. Therefore, as this chapter explains, Hemadpant insists that any virtues or faults found in the text belong to Sai alone, as he is simply the instrument.
