What was Sai Baba's role in the creation of the book about His life stories, and what instructions did He give the author?

According to Chapter 2, Sai Baba played a direct and foundational role in the creation of the book. He not only gave permission for the collection of stories but also provided His full help. He stated, "He is merely a pretext; I myself shall write my own story!" This emphasizes that the author was just an instrument. Baba's core instruction was for the author to dissolve his ego and surrender it at His feet, promising that for one who does so, He provides full assistance. He encouraged the author to keep a record of the stories, whether at home or elsewhere, and to remember them repeatedly, as they would become a resting place for the soul.
