What is the significance of listening to Sai's stories, and what role does the narrator play in conveying them?

According to Chapter 47, the stories of Sai Baba are supremely holy and possess a marvelous greatness. Listening to them is said to sever the bonds of Karma for both the wise and the ignorant. The text reveals that Sai himself is the ultimate source of these narratives, as he enters the narrator's heart to tell the tale. The narrator, Hemad, considers himself merely a 'nickname' or a vessel, emphasizing that Sai Samarth is the story, the speaker, and the face. The purpose for listeners is to focus on the inner meaning and moral of these stories, which Chapter 47 suggests will lead to the fulfillment of their life's purpose and bring peace from worldly weariness.
