What is the author's role in writing the Shri Sai Satcharitra, according to Chapter 40?

According to Chapter 40, the author, Hemad, views himself as merely an instrument for Sai Baba's will. He explicitly states that he is a puppet of Sai, dancing to the pull of His strings. The chapter clarifies that Sai is the original stimulator of consciousness who performs His own story through the author. Therefore, Hemad requests that listeners do not attribute any virtues or faults in the composition to him, as he believes both originate from Sai Baba, the true source of the work.
