What is the relationship between ego, surrender, and the creation of the sacred text as described by Sai Baba?

๐Ÿ“– Chapter 2

In Chapter 2, Sai Baba outlines a profound creative process rooted in spiritual surrender. He explains that the author, or any devotee, is merely a pretext for the divine work. The fundamental prerequisite is the dissolution of the ego and its complete surrender at Sai's feet. Baba states, 'When the ego is dissolved, no trace of it remains. Then I myself shall enter with 'I-ness' and write with my own hand.' This implies that the true author is Sai Baba himself, who works through the devotee once the barrier of individual ego is removed. Therefore, the act of hearing, reflecting, or writing the stories is accomplished by the One to whom it belongs, not the human instrument.
