What is the author's stated purpose for telling another story in Chapter 36, and how is the act of storytelling framed?

In the introduction to Chapter 36, the author's purpose is explicitly stated. Following a previous story, a promise was made to continue the narration. The author frames the act of storytelling as a means to quench the spiritual thirst of the listener. The text from Chapter 36 explains that the stories are "the very water of self-bliss" and that listening to them "increases the thirst (for devotion) intensely." Therefore, another story is told to satisfy this heightened desire for devotion. The narrator also humbly dismisses their own role, stating that the "playful Sai himself takes over" and uses the speaker as a mere pretext to communicate with devotees.
