What were Sai Baba's instructions for the creation of a book about his life?

Sai Baba gave his full blessing and support for a collection of his stories and experiences to be compiled. As detailed in Chapter 2, he stated that the author was merely a pretext and that He Himself would write His own story to fulfill the devotee's wish. The key instruction was for the author to completely dissolve his ego and surrender it at Baba's feet. In return for this surrender, Sai Baba promised not only His full assistance with the story but also to serve in all ways in the devotee's home, emphasizing that the work would be accomplished by the One to whom it belongs.
