What was the author's ultimate wish for the Shri Sai Satcharita, and what spiritual benefits are promised to its readers?

The author's profound desire was for the Shri Sai Satcharita to be widely studied and recited daily through numerous Parayans and Saptahs, similar to the Guru Charitra. As described in the preface found in Chapter 0, the book is considered a "sweet, spiritual treat" for devotees. The text further explains that if seekers engage with this book with faith and heart, they perform a "sacrifice of knowledge" (Jnana-yagna). This act of devotion is promised to satisfy Shri Sai-Paramatma and ultimately lead the devotee to become one with Him after the death of the body.
