In Chapter 36, the author humbly questions his own authority to describe the infinite greatness of saints. He explicitly states that the true narrator is Sai Baba himself. The text says, "Enough of this 'I-ness' (ego) of the speaker; the playful Sai himself takes over and makes his own qualities heard by his devotees through someone." This idea is reinforced later in the chapter when it mentions that Sai loves his own stories and provides memories of them, "making the listener and speaker a mere pretext" to fulfill the desires of his devotees. Therefore, the human author sees himself as merely a fortunate instrument, while Sai is the actual divine source of the narration.
Who is considered the true narrator of the stories in the Sai Satcharitra, based on the author's perspective in Chapter 36?
