What is the narrator's perspective on their own role in compiling and sharing the stories of Sai Baba?

In Chapter 36, the narrator expresses deep humility about their role in telling Sai's stories. They question their own authority to describe the infinite greatness of a saint, stating, "What authority do I have? I am truly aware of this." The author believes they are not the true speaker but that Sai Baba himself is the one orchestrating the narration. The text suggests that the "playful Sai himself takes over and makes his own qualities heard by his devotees through someone," making the speaker and listener a mere pretext for fulfilling the spiritual desires of the devotees.
