Who was responsible for documenting Maharaj's Leelas, and was this work authorized?

The monumental task of collecting and documenting Maharaj's Leelas, or divine plays, was undertaken by his honorable friend Ra. Govind Raghunath, also known as Annasaheb Dabholkar. The Introduction in Chapter 0 notes that this work was not only known to Maharaj but was started with his direct permission while he was still in his physical body. Annasaheb Dabholkar composed a large portion of this collection in a verse form called Ovis. At the time the introduction was written, thirty-five chapters of this significant verse-work were already completed, ensuring that his stories would be beneficial to all.
