Who was responsible for documenting Maharaj's life and teachings, and was it done with his approval?

While the author notes that truly counting the 'infinite qualities of the Infinite One' is an impossible task, a significant effort was made to collect Maharaj's Leelas for the benefit of all. As recounted in Chapter 0, this collection was compiled by an honorable friend, Ra. Govind Raghunath, who was also known as Annasaheb Dabholkar. He composed a large part of this work in verse form, known as Ovis. Crucially, this important undertaking was initiated with Maharaj's direct permission while he was still in his physical body. At the time this introduction was written, thirty-five chapters of the work were already complete.
