When does the author pause the narrative to explain the origin of his name 'Hemadpant'?

๐Ÿ“– Chapter 2

The author pauses the main life story of Sai Baba right after recounting Baba's advice to avoid useless argumentation and dualistic explanations. As detailed in Chapter 2, remembering these words reminds the author of a promise he made to his listeners at the end of the first chapter. He decides to fulfill that promise by telling the sub-story of how he was named 'Hemadpant' at this specific juncture. He does this to satisfy the reader's curiosity, which naturally arises from seeing the credit "Composed by the devotee Hemadpant" at the end of each chapter, before continuing with the main sequence of Sai's leelas.
