What is the stated purpose of Chapter 34, and how does the narrative about the boy with the bone-cyst support this purpose?

๐Ÿ“– Chapter 34

The introduction of Chapter 34 explicitly states its purpose is to continue the narration from the previous chapter on the greatness and glory of Udi. The author aims to further describe Udi's qualities and characteristics for the sake of attaining blissful knowledge. The narrative about the doctor's nephew with the bone-cyst, or Hadyavran, serves as a specific illustration of this glory. The story supports the chapter's purpose by providing a concrete, experience-based example of Udi's power. It shows that Udi can cure a "terrible disease" that was completely resistant to all medical remedies, thereby demonstrating its "current majesty" and proving that even incurable diseases can perish when Sai applies his Udi.
