What is the author's perspective on their own role in writing about Sai Baba? How do they perceive the act of authorship in relation to the divine?

The author's perspective on their role is one of profound humility, viewing themselves as merely an instrument for a divine purpose. Chapter 2 explains the author's belief that they are not the true writer but that Sai Baba himself is guiding their hand, making the author a pen in His service. The text states, 'Making me his pen, Baba himself will guide my hand. I am merely the owner in name; I only shape the letters.' This reflects a philosophy where saints or the Lord write their own stories through chosen individuals, 'keeping their hand on the author's head,' as was the case with Mahipati and Das Ganu.
